I know what point you're trying to make, but it isn't a consistent one. There are several possible parties to a transaction to sell a Cobra: Manufacturer, Dealer, Seller and Buyer.

The Kirkham's cannot legally sell me a turn-key car because they're the Manufacturer/Seller and I'm the Buyer. There are no intermediaries (i.e., Dealer), thus they cannot complete a Kirkham or they would violate Federal law.

OTH, you're a dealer, an intermediary, not a manufacturer, and I'll assume you are not a related entity to SPF in any way. You have an agreement to sell SPF's as Vintage Motorsports has agreement to sell BDR's.

Have you been advised by SPF or your own lawyer(s) that your independent SPF dealership cannot by Federal law finish a SPF Cobra for a customer?
