Many Cobra replicas are titled as early model Ford cars; e.g. mine is titled as a 1967 Ford Cobra. I had absolutely no trouble getting it registered when I purchased it from a man in Texas. It had also been registered that way there. I have heard other Cobra owners express the same. I have no idea about the regs in Italy, but that might just work.

I know that many have stated that it is critical when the car is first titled to "do it correctly" or it will be difficult from then on. The same when purchasing insurance. Don't list it as a Shelby Cobra...list it as it is titled. Of course you will have to provide detailed photos to get the "agreed upon value" insurance, so they will know full well what they are insuring.

Good luck
