One thing I've learned about this Cobra hobby is that you have to have pretty thick skin if you're gonna be happy.

No matter how high up the replica ladder you go, there's always assholes and opinions. I was at the Shelby show a couple weeks ago at Shelby, Gardena.
I heard a "prominent" Shelby person (no, not Lynn Park) say to another, "A nice one, not like one of those" pointing to a less than original replica.

How about owning an ally CSX4/6, dressed to the 9's (good and accurate as can be), only to overhear a guy wearing a club jacket, "The owner drives that thing likes it's a real one."

Or what if you did own a CSX2 or CSX3 and overheard, "It's over done", or "Now it looks fake", "He ruined it", et al. Of course, never to the owner's face. That would take balls. And the balls of most of these opinionaters shriveled decades ago.

Everyone's Cobra is a manifestation of what they want and what they can afford or willing to spend. Show my any Cobra and I'll tell you what's important to the owner.
