Uh-uh. Seems like a no-brainer to me.

When I was a kid in school (sixties), too young to have a car of any type, I read every car magazine I could get my hands on, and from what I remember reading many times over, CSX stood for Carroll Shelby Experimental. Never read once about "export" back then, and I drooled over the Cobra for many years. Kids are very impressionable, and usually have good memories about what they covet. Whatever, just my fifty cents (what car mags cost back then).

Plus well over 1000 magazine's, I have read them all. I have been a Cobra guy since 1976 (when I first saw it in Gumball Rally) and I have been a Cobra replica owner for almost 33 years in wihich I have built and rebuilt my Cobra shaped Hot Rod 2 1/2 times. But I have to admit like you guy's have said when it comes to Cobra's I am just an idiot and don't know a thing. Thank god for you guy's to set my mind straight.

Well, you do have a Cobra with a (cough) chevy engine. But you're welcome!
