My 2 cents:
If you buy a Cobra from Shelby, you have a Shelby Cobra. It may have been made in the 60's or the 00's. It may have different components. It may have an aluminum or fiberglass body. It may be refered to as an original or a continuation. But it is still a Shelby Cobra. It is a real Shelby Cobra. It is not a replica Shelby Cobra. If what you paid for it is worth it to you, then you who can possibly say anything. It is your decision what it is worth to you and everyone else's opinion doesn't matter.
I went a different route for so many reasons. I did it because it was what I wanted to do. I started with a FFR kit. I sat down with Gordon Levy (Levy Racing) and planned what I wanted in my car. The frame is different. The body is different. The engine, transmission, suspension, etc. are all different from the FFR donor concept.
Is my car a FFR? Is my car a Levy Racing? Who knows and who cares, but me, really. It has a classic shape and great performance.
Everyone takes a different route. The route they choose. Its right for them. They can call their car anything they want. It is what it is to them. Everyone lighten up.
