The chances of this being a real cobra being scammed are about as great as that of the caller being a real attorney. This has Nigeria Scam written all over it.

Really? it's a fairly large problem for rare muscle cars to be conjured out of or cloned from one of their weaker siblings, then sold as a rare muscle car to the unsuspecting buyer. Why not a Cobra?

Just offering up an alternative interpretation.

Has he popped up again? No. He's already figured out that counterfeiting a Cobra is hard because there is a fair knowledge base and moved on to something else. Noone will ever hear from this guy again.

But, go ahead with the snipe hunt if you want...

A guy down the street from me was "restoring" 1963 and 64 Chevy Impalas. Re-selling them or parting them out. One day several black SUV's pulled up and a bunch of cops in full tactical gear raided the place. A very nice house too with a big workshop out back. They seized everything and I haven't seen the guy since. So yes, there are all kinds out there!
