The answer simply is you most likely can't. All of the cars used in last year's Shelby movie Ford v Ferrari were all replicas. Noone would take a chance on a real one. There may be conditions, like a static lap with a pro driver but nothing like what you saw in the movie.

I really think you're going to have a hard case proving any kind of daily/weekly/monthly or any other periodic "loss". While some serious owners do take their cars out for tours, most original Cobras aren't daily drivers. They sit in air conditioned garages and are driven to car shows. Ask the owner what he planned to do with it.
