Cobra 30 CSX
Anybody know what the ID is of this Cobra? It's a RHD drive car, so I'm assuming it's a COB car.
....and no, it's not COB6008 
Cheers,

The COB means that it was originally made for sale in Britain so maybe some of the members from there can help you. I believe they also have a Cobra club there and you might see and if they do check with them.

Glen, my man, where do you find this stuff?
You have a knack of finding all the nice ones.

I’ve no idea how you know that... but I’d never second guess you when it comes to this stuff. |

Were they allowed to use the COB numbers for replicas. Original COB was for Cobras made for sale in Britain, COX was for sale in other countries and CSX was for sale here in the states.

Realistically anyone can use COB or CSX numbers for that matter. When placed on a replica, it has no real meaning and the COB/COX/CSX prefix is not assigned by a government agency nor is it trademarked to my knowledge. I can customize an old Chevette and assign "CSX 2000" to it. It doesn't mean anything. |

Mark,
Removed due to the fact that I was not trying to start an argument as I only know what this state is like and not all of the others.

Stop calling me Mark, my name is Adolph!(let's see who catches that gem!) Yes, misrepresenting to the DMV is not a good thing but the point is if fro example I resurrect Road Serpents, I can put CSX whatever on my MSOs and it will fly. If I am building a complete vehicle that requires a WMI 17 digit VIN then, no I can't do that. |
