Also if the premium on Shelbys wither based on evaporated interest where does that leave cars that aren't even Shebys?
IMO, the originals will always be sought after by the "cognoscenti", the "fine art" collector types, because I think they'll always buy those special few "Mona Lisa" type collectibles. If interest diminishes in the Carroll Shelby legacy in future years, then I think it's the modern CSX's that take a hit. They'll be seen as just rebadged Kirkhams with CSX VIN's as someone else here said.
