Evan,
You said it, not me. If you ground the CSX numbers off a Shelby could YOU recognize it?
Here's an original. Does it look familiar? IT DOES NOT HAVE A CSX NUMBER. It's a COB. Please tell everyone that your discerning eyes can tell the difference. (The FIA wheels don't count!)
So, a CSX minus the the CSX is a COB. How easy can this be???
And since you are a true Shelby afficianado, you must remember that SAAC specifically asked Kirkham to place their ID numbers in the same location on the frame as thre originals to help prevent fraud.
