The AACA ( Antique Automobile Club of America ) has approved the Shelby Cobra for their new 2008 judging class referred to as SGVC: Second Generation Collector Vehicle. Other manufacturers that assemble their versions " might " also qualify upon submitting to the AACA the required documentation. As noted, for the Shelby Cobra the article in the Shelby magazine was used as documentation, page 46 to 50. |
Yes, once 25 years have passed since its construction. That would mean cars built in 1983 or earlier.
You mentioned other cars that may be included such as Glenn-Pray manufactured Auburns, Avanti II, Clenet, Shay built Model A's and Zimmer. These were sold as finish vehicles including engines and met all emission and safety standards of the times. I wonder if AACA understands that the 'new' Shelby Cobra is a component car?
The first of the 4000 series began in 1995 so the first car able for SGVC would be in 2020.
