Yes, Mr Anderson gives cobra replica owners a bit more slack than SCM usually does. I have been wondering, lately, why the real cobras have been holding their valuations so well while other classics of the same era have been dropping with the economy. For example, The Mathews Collection has been listing a 1971 McLaren M8D for $180k while unrestored 289s have collected more recently. And some real bargains in 12cyl Ferraris. I'm not complaining mind you. But it would be nice to think that a guy could still find a unrestored 289 for under $100k.
