What it all comes down to is,rarity. The 60's Cobras are rare and therefore valuable. Even a postage stamp can be worth a fortune if it's rare enough. Then came the continuation Cobra's, put CS's name on it, and you pay more, in the hope that in 40 years time it will also be worth a fortune[ if gas is still available]. If Elvis sign your glovebox on your VW it will be worth a fortune too. Doesn't make them any better, just more unique. But because so many continuations were sold, [can someone give me a figure?]they aren't worth much more then a Kirkham. But if I bump into Elvis, I hope he signs my glovebox.
