owners like the fact that CSX 4000-8000 are real Shelby Cobras.

so if there would be a survey, 98% would deny it....
The original owners I talked with didn't care. They knew my car was made by Shelby, but also knew it would do nothing to diminsh the value of their original.

Kirkham owners tend to say "your aluminum Shelby is just a Kirkham". That used to not be true - they were made differently just like HiTech's Shelbys are different from the Superformance versions, but now the aluminum Shelby's just are Kirkhams with Shelby badges applied. Oh, and for the most part, painted as they should be.
