It won't affect the existing Cobra (and GT40, etc) market at all.

Most likely the new complete vehicles will be taxed as a new modern vehicle by the value paid. They get a new emissions compliant engine so they can be emissions tested just like any other 2022 model year car. If it costs 100K expect to pay taxes on it just like a 100K Jeep Wagoneer (which they are, by the way) I doubt seriously states are going to consider it a 65 vehicle and tax it based on a depreciated 65... States want revenue. They'll maximize it. I expect CT and other new england states will be especially greedy.
