"current production Cobras built by Shelby..."


and under the CSX 4000 topic:

" They were not exactly original, but neither were they replicas, either..."


if Shelby would build an D-Type, then this car would be a replica built by Shelby, but if Jaguar build it, its a genuine, real Jaguar D-type of current production, a continuation D-Type

so Shelby cannot build a replica of ist own creation, it is naturally a continuation production

There you have it.

The Jaguar continuation cars (which sold for what, about a million bucks each) were mentioned and those that said Shelby was wrong also asserted Jaguar was wrong. BTW, the Jaguar D-types are gorgeous but the E-type wins the prize.
