How would my mentioning that affect how someone answered or shed light upon the two questions that I asked? No nefarious plans here, @twobjshelbys, just looking for answers from people who know a lot about this stuff. Put your badge and gun back in the drawer.
If the car is an original CSX2000 or CSX3000, with documented, 60’s period racing history, then yes, there could be a loss of value. Any at built after the originals were out of production are just replicas of the original and value would be that of a similar vehicle. You’ll have to be far more forthcoming with a specific chassis to be able to ascertain value, or loss of value. There is no magic ball here, each cars value is asked on that car’s documented history.
