When in doubt, the good old free market tells you everything you need to know. There were a few real Cobras made in the 60's worth serious money and then there are countless versions of "not". I don't care if it' made from glass, carbon, alloy or tarpaper or whose bull**** rationalization of " after the fact, it's in the book" yada yada yada. You have a " not". If it was otherwise it would be valued much closer the original cars, call it a not plus or double plus.
There are nots, not minus', not plus' . And they will always be something other than what we may secretly wish them to be.
I have what I have, because, more than anything else, it captures the embodyment of what these cars were, now operationally better, all at a fair price, with a small dose of principle preservation( maybe) and they're kind of fun.
You want 4 wheel penis envy, buy a ferrari becauce unless you got a real bragging rights 1965 million dollar example, we're all, ALL, me included, in the somewhat shallow end of the pool here folks.
