You are quite correct RodKnock, the MSO is quite clear that these are component vehicles. Seems Al G and others are "taking liberties" with what the MSO says, no surprise.

My car is built by a company called Shelby. The MSO says the model is Cobra. It is what the MSO claims it to be. That seems to match the definitions of genuine, real and authentic. Of course it is not an original 1965 Cobra and I never claim it to be. The so-called Cobra replicas manufactered by a number of companies all fail the genuine, real and authentic definitions if they claim to be Shelby Cobras.
What the MSO actually looks like -

"STATEMENT OF ORIGIN FOR A CSX4000 SERIES COMPONENT VEHICLE"

Trade Name: Shelby Cobra 427
Series: CSX4000
Model Year: 1965

"The CSX4000 Series Component Vehicle is sold by Shelby American, Inc. without engine or transmission"



The point is obvious, if you are going to quote your MSO then quote it, you own a CSX4000 Series or CSX6000 Series Component Vehicle.
