But not for a car.

Shelby Cobra was trademarked, but no longer active
Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe is in force
Shelby King Cobra is dead
Shelby 427 S/C is active

Well, hopefully, he'll cite it, quickly and succinctly, but it has absolutely nothing to do with who makes the best Cobra replica. And yes, that includes the Shelby version.
Although I think the OP decided he now wants a GT40 replica and presently is investigating "Who makes the best GT40?" Unfortunately, only Superformance can call their replica a GT40, and be listed in the World Registry, because they license the name from Safir, who bought the license.....eh forget it.
