Seriously folks, you can't make this sh!t up!

BTW, who knows roughly how many of the original 998 are actually left (still in existence)?
870. I had that same question a few weeks ago and hunted it down. I'll be damned if I can remember where I found it, though.

Edit: This post from 2004 says 890:
- 260-289 Cobra Built 655 Found 581
- 427 Cobra Built 348 Found 309

how many real cobras are left?

And, no, Evan's CSX4206 is not included in these numbers.
