In your responses on the auction you mention that someone in West Babylon had 3 csx cars including a carbon fiber car. What info did you get about it? The CSX carbon fiber cars were manufactured by HST for Shelby. My car was one of them and at the time they said there were 6 total although I heard they may have made 1 or 2 more before HST and Shelby parted ways (and HST completely closed shortly thereafter. including their bread and butter business of armored vehicle conversions. Cobras were truly a hobby of the owner.)

Was it a "LA" car - like mine, CSX4005LA, was made as a group of 427s that were special turnkey cars that were sold to a close group of Mexico City car nuts that raced them on weekends... My memory is fuzzy but I think that 4 of the 6 carbon fiber cars were LA cars, maybe more...
