Let me clear things up, as I live near and visit Armond of California Cobra almost every day, yes, he bought the car a few months back from the movie studios, the car back then was not street legal, it had a 3 gallon gas tank and was built in a rush, so he fixed a lot of small problems to make it street legal.
It is a Shell Valley and according to the DVD documentary (see inside your rented Charlie's Angels" DVD, there's a section where they talk about the cars in the movie, they say they made 8 Cobras in different stages to accomplish all of the movie stunts, but this one is the actual ONLY one built complete and undamaged).
I saw the car since the day it got here (he went to the studios to pick it up after winning it on eBay) to just 2 days ago when I was over there.
California Cobra ( www.cacobra.com ) builds FFRs, Uniques, Shell Valleys, Contemporary's, etc. They are the distribuitor for Backdrafts also.
the Car is the one used in the movie and comes with a Letter of Authenticity.
I can take more pictures if you guys want....
