I think the significance of this car (CSX2011) is that it has significant race history, and the current cosmetic condition is secondary, as long as it's basically all there and drivable. From the reading,

I believe the car to be in unrestored condition, which may be to it's advantage even if it's a little rough. I would think that the vast majority of club members here, including myself , don't have what it takes to purchase this car anyways, and alot of people who do have the desire and cash probably wouldn't be brousing this forum regularly with all of the "fake" cobra's we talk about. I just don't think a member here will ultimately be the person who purchases this car, but hey, what do I know.
If it was a street CSX car, with no race history, then the condition is of greater importance impacting it's market value, and I would think if it's in rough condition, it would detract from the value even if it was still an unrestored car. Why did Jim Maxwell restore his cobra's vs. leave them unrestored?
