You make the incorrect assumption that buyers of Cobra replicas are attempting to duplicate Shelby's car. That's just not so, at least not in every case. I did NOT choose to order my ERA because I wanted to mimic Shelby's Cobra-- I wanted an outrageously powerful, lightweight, well-built big block sports car, and the only body available happened to look like Shelby's car. I personally find Shelby's recent behavior bizzare, and I'll leave it at that. I ordered my ERA in spite of Shelby, not because of him. I, for one, refuse to put anything on my car that has Shelby's name on it, including the Cobra emblems.
Keep your badges off..it dosn't matter! Everybody knows who made that car what it is today..
