Ok, it turns out I am ignorant and stupid. Indeed, there it is, after combing through the trademarks again, I found it. Ford does have a trademark for Cobra applicable to automobiles. But Shelby does not. So no one that has a roadster that was built after the '60s can call their vehicle a Cobra. That word is reserved for cars made by Ford. [edit] keep in mind that these trademarks come and go over time. [end edit]
Ford has it trademarked under several filings. They have it trademarked for a lot of stuff.
