Actually I know the owner of CSX2416 and he is restoring it to original specs, and will be racing it. He was originally going to restore it do drive on the street, but then discovered the provenance of being an original factory dragonsnake.

He also owns one of the six original King Cobras (cooper monaco chassis) and an original '66 GT350 and actively races them all on the NASA circuit.
