The World Registry also contains a story that the CSX4000's were considered "true replicas", and "component" cars, but for marketing purposes, they decided to call them continuations.
Not entirely accurate. Shelby didn't want to refer to them as Kits. Component cars was more palatable to him. But I get your drift. Yes, yes. True. true.

But again, any car that is going to be sold without meeting todays safety regulations and emissions regulations would have to be sold in "kit" fashion. Even the original Cobras today if production never stopped would have to be sold in kit fashion.

To me its a "so what".

But the Registry also says other things too... Dare I go there? Keep reading.

BTW I love pickled herring in the white cream sauce. Yummy.
