Hi Buzz, There probably aren't definitive answers to these questions but I have gained much insight, here and elsewhere, into how collectors feel about Cobras. A raced 289 would have a little more...

Loss of Joy would certainly be quantifiable in my estimation. It may be a simple matter of semantics between, Loss of Use, Loss of Joy and Pain & Suffering. Glad I'm not a judge.

Would you feel the same about a million-dollar Rembrandt that was lost in a theft? We'll see what a judge or jury says and I will be glad to share their ruling. Pain and suffering is a stretch but I...

I also want to make mention of "a notion by experts" that the bodies of many narrow hip Cobras such as CSX3145 were altered to turn them into wide hip versions. The idea is supposedly that wide hip...
