Sal, I beg to differ. SAAC has them in the Registry for a specific reason and that is to keep them identified as what they are. Shelby has tried to rewrite history in the past and if given the Registry now would certainly relive the 60's all ocver again!! I bet Jim Morrisons 67 GT500 would Magically resurface within days at Tango Classics!!

How could 4000 cars be identified as anything other than what they are? Shelby never tried to say they weren't anything more than Shelby Cobras built from 1996 to present.

Sal, the COBRAS Shelby tried to reintroduce in the 90's as "Old Orihginal Frames" from back in the 60's and gave them CSX 3000 series #'s before California shut him down on it....Ring a Bell? you think for one minute that he was not more lucid back then while attempting that stunt, than he is at 84 you would be wrong. He would potentially really go Hawg Wild Now and when finally he got drug into court this time, he would probably already be Dead!

Of course it rings a bell, I just explained that in the post above yours .

What I was saying is, the 4000 cars were never claimed to be anything more than what they are.... Shelby Cobras built after 1996. Completion cars were different. Carroll tried to say they were something that they weren't from the get go, and got caught. But that's a different car, not a 4000 car. He COULD try to change what the 4000 cars "are" after the fact, but that would be rediculous, because it would have no validity after they've been out for 10 years now.
