It seems to me that I recall when Shelby first started his Las Vegas plant and got nailed on the continuation Cobra thing that he made a remark along the lines that he wasn't that interested in building Cobras anyway and that the Series 1 cars were going to be his main thing. He didn't want any of the responsibility of building a turn key Cobra and they were to be just a kind of side line to the Series 1 project. I don't notice any big rush to build Series 1 replicas.
Everyone except the legal teams is going to lose on this mess no matter how it turns out. If Shelby wins, will he honor the orders for the new Cobra Registry or just keep the money already paid in for them and not send them out?
Why can't the two sides just agree to let the SAAC continue with the originals as it has since Shelby left for Africa for his 10 year sulk and didn't want anything to do with the cars, and the new SAI/Team Shelby keep all records and registry of the new cars he is making?
