Further, if OP performed the aforementioned subterfuge, why would he raise it in a forum visited by those with expertise very likely to uncover his misdeeds?

FWIW, I believe OP's story in buying the car as he has described, and he came here legitimately seeking answers.
That comment was tongue-in-cheek.

But someone went through the trouble of riveting an AC ID plate on the car. And if it were an actual Kirkham/CSX, then someone went through trouble of removing the Kirkham VIN numbers everywhere, that's visible at least. Why do that? That seems awfully strange.

I'd ask, why not post it on the saacforum.com, which is where alot more Shelby Cobra experts hang out. Or send the information to Kirkham and have them give the OP their expert opinion.
