Just my two cents worth but one of your statements is wrong. (The car is CSX3145. My questions aren't really specific to this car or the loss of use matter, I just want to know, in general, are raced Cobras the only ones of historical significance and whether 289s are more desirable than 427s (because they were raced vs. 427s which were not) See the Essex Wire Companies record of winning races with their 427 Cobra.

And all original Cobras are worth a lot and the amount will depend on condition and how original they still are, plus racing history and who drove them. For instance a Cobra driven by Ken Miles and winning a race is going to normally bring more than one driven by some basically unknown driver who won some races.
