Rick,
What is your absolute first goal -
A) Return on financial investment?
B) Owning a Shelby car with a continuation CSX serial number?
C) Function & Value - driving it?

I would concur with many others. Don't buy it based purely for investment purpose. Buy it if this is what you really want. For some, its about quality and function and modern day serial numbers mean nothing to us. For others, they've always dreamed of owning a Shelby Cobra and willing to pay the price. In either case you can find quality, and the price tag depends on what you hope to accomplish with it. Without naming names, I know of a few guys who sold their originals to buy nice, modern day replicas so they could drive them.
IMO: Whatever you do, buy something you can drive and enjoy whenever you want. To me there is nothing worse than buying an expensive modern day recreation car to let it just sit there an look at it without driving it much. It comes down to what you want, not what any of us think.
Good Luck.
