I was sitting in a barber shop today reading a car sales magazine for high end cars and hot rods all over North America. I would guess there were a dozen and a half Cobra's advertised. All listed them as the year the body replicates. A lot were very up front about them bing a replica and listed the manufacturer. A few were not. One in particular stated this car is not a kit, and never mentioned it was a replica. A normal non Cobra nut would very likely read that add and think it was an original car. The $60K price says it is a replica, but if the price was $700K, you would think it was original for sure (based on the add).

BTW - the economic down turn is over and our cars are worth a lot more. Only one car was under $50K, and it was in pretty bad shape!
