It's actually simpler than that.
Per SAAC based on the official definitions you have amoug others:
Original series Cobras.
CSX series Cobras (aka Continuation Series Cobras)
Replica/kit cars (these cars are NOT Cobras)
Guys here can bang their rattle on the floor like the guy in post #29 with that worn out mantra or you can come up with your own definitions, explanations and/or position (which mean nothing to anyone but you) or you can accept the world leading authority's position as stated in the Bible of all things Cobra of which I am sure many of you even belong to the organization known as SAAC by paying a membership fee and or even purchased a Registry.
As a hobby we do informally refer to all these cars as Cobras for ease of reference and perhaps out of a sense of camaraderie. Yes, I get that and do it myself and have no problem with it at all but when you are getting "technical" it's all right there in the Registry.
When the OP is asked what his SPF is or if it's original the "right" answer is "it's a replica of a Cobra". What he chooses to actually say I couldn't care less.
