Wow what a concept!
In NH a car will carry the MSO stated designation. However, my car originated in MA who at the time of title listed the car as a Cobra Rep 1985 using a hod-rod redefined 7 digit- MA VIN. The car was originally a 1982 with #CCX062482 which DMV of MA had taken away and destroyed. Yes, my CCX tag was removed and destroyed.
My opinion (everyone has one), any car built by individual or factory should carry the year of manufacture on the title. States differ 'YES' but if Sal was to sell his CSX how could he say 1965 CSX4XXX Cobra? Built by Shelby or not? Is a completely built factory built AKL a 1965? Can I install a 1965 V6 in my wifes 2007 Ford Fusion and call it a 1965 concept car? Come on guys, lets be real about this.
Once again, if the car was made in the 60's and carries a CSX2XXX or CSX3XXX it is an
original Shelby Cobra. Anything less than that is a replication of the original; and yes a Real Cobra to degree some even a Real Shelby Cobra none the less replication thereof....
Bet this will spark the never ending debate.... BTW: Sal your car is a fantastic example no slight there.
Let the fun begin!
