"The resurgency in Cobra attention is due to him.
Guy, you know better than to make this statement. The ONLY reason the cobra is alive today is BECAUSE of the "replica industry" and the only reason Carroll Shelby is actively pursuing it's continuation is because he sees the economic opportunities it affords, which is not a criticism but rather a clarification.
The new cobra, if it makes it to production, will have to meet current DOT/EPA impact and safety standards. We watched a similar transformation with the prototype Viper mule to the production vehicle. The cobra will have to follow a similar evolution and more in order to even meet current standards.
A more important question is how will this production effect the production of CAV and alloy production CSX's? Why would Shelby endorse a product that directly competes with a vehicle that is struggling to regain it's position in the market?
Is this another Pete Rose Syndrome?
