Here's my once only take on it.
What is a Shelby' car? If it was made by the Shelby company, or made under a Shelby contract by another company for Shelby, then surely, yes, it must be a 'Shelby'.
What is a 'Cobra'? If it's preceded by the Shelby name, it can only be one of the 998 cars that left the Shelby premises back in the 1960s
If it's a Shelby Cobra Continuation car, then it is a Shelby authorised 'replica' of the '60s Shelby Cobras. You can try and get around that description using a semantics argument, but you can't get away from the fact that a Shelby Cobra Continuation car is not a Shelby Cobra.
I'm out

your comments are confusing to say the least.
Your first sentence
"What is a Shelby' car? If it was made by the Shelby company, or made under a Shelby contract by another company for Shelby, then surely, yes, it must be a 'Shelby'."
The 4000/6000 series cars fall under this catagory, so according to your statement, these cars are shelbys, right?
Sentence #2 no clue
Sentence #3 is canceling sentence#1 are we ok? or are are we confused here?
this is why this thread is like herding cats...
