I have had four Corvettes; a 67 convertible 427/400hp (drove like a truck); a 69 350/350 convertible (drove nicely but no wow factor); a 72 LT-1 a/c coupe (not very fast and really hot inside); currently own a 65 fuelie convertible (in need of restoration). I have never owned a Cobra (although I thought I bought one once). I have made money on every Corvette. Unless I was able to purchase an original 2000 or 3000 CSX Cobra there is little chance of making money on any continuation or replica car. With that said I am ready to buy a Cobra and delay the restoration of the Vette. To have something to drive and enjoy exceeds the pleasure of simply showing a Corvette. Modifications probably won't matter on a Cobra where they would drag the Vette down in value. I think are too many critics in the Vette circle and many simply in it for the pleasure in the Cobra circle. I do plan to keep the Corvette though. Good luck with your decision.
