Read the laws for component or "kit" cars for almost any state and instead of looking for the loopholes, look at what they are trying to address and you'll see that your not supposed to have someone like Shelby or anyone else build these cars, sell them to you as a car and have you title, register and inspect it.
Another thought popped into my head. Did Shelby keep the same corporation alive all those years he was MIA in Africa, if not then the new "cobra" rollers are not real in the sense the original corporation made them?

I think you're wrong. I've probably spent at least 10X the amount of time searching the web about shelby cars, and possibly presently more than you ever will. I don't care abut the registration laws of states that don;t have interest to me, but I know states differ immensely. If you would have spent any time on the web, you would have seen that Shelby is/was an auto manufacturer, although I donlt know if the new GT500's, Shelby GT's, etc have Shelby listed as the manufacturer, nor do I care. I know that the series 1 cars did.
What it boils down to is what you believe in. You can believe whatver you want to believe. If you believe the world is flat, not round, thats fine with me. I'm not there to change your mind, just to put another contrasting opinion on the web, so people who haven't made up their mind yet can make their own decision. You'll never change my opinion, and I;ll know I'll never change yours.
buy a factory 5.
P.S. I own a classic mustang as well. Infact, the tranny in my cobra is out of a '67 390 stang (short nose-small spline-wide ratio) if you know what that means.
