Sorry to read about your troubles.
I registered my CSX Cobra in 10/2006 as a 1965 Shelby Cobra w/the CSX number as the VIN.
I used the DMV office by the Chicago Superformance dealer as they are used to registering Cobras. Can't recall the location, but call the Superformance dealer and ask. You must go in-person!!! Do not mail things to Springfield.

You will need the the builders MSO/receipt along with the engine builder/installer receipt.
In addition, I had a member of the National Street Rod Association come to my house for the 'safety inspection' (basiclly paid him $20 for gas). This part of the process may have changed since 2006 but, you need this certificate at the DMV.

It was 3 hours of my life I will never get back, but there is no way else to get it done.
I got my title a few weeks later only to have them spell Shelby as 'Sheby.'

Regardless, it was titled as a 1965 Shelby Cobra VIN CSX xxxx.
Good luck.
Chris
