As I've said before, the whole argument about what is or isn't a replica is silly. There are only originals and replicas.

So where did the modern CSX cars come from? The bodies/chassis came from Kirkham for the aluminum cars. Kirkham used CSX3104 as the original to copy. So Kirkhams are replicas of CSX3104, as are the aluminum CSX cars. Where did the fiberglass cars come from? Well, I'm told Shelby used CSX3057 to copy for the fiberglass cars. So they are replicas of CSX3057. Interesting story about 3057 too. Might want to check into that!

Please. If anyone has info on COB or COX sales post them please. I'm willing to bet those numbers are waaaay below Shelbys of the same vintage.

And where did the Cobra body come from?.... the AC Ace. Your point is what??? So the original Cobras are replicas of the Ace? Where did the Ace shape come from? The Barchetta? So I guess the Ace is a replica of that?

You obviously can't grasp basic concepts. The two originals were used to produce the correct shape. They could have created bucks. They could have produced the shape in a number of other ways.

You can't grasp the fact the issue is the end product and where it comes from and what it legally is. Your analysis is on the initial process of getting the shape?? Uh, Ooookay.

If you don't have a Registry buy one. If you have one read it.
