You, sir, "don't get it".
Foolishly, the market for Shelbys considers CSX2009 an "original real Cobra". That was reflected in the high bid a couple of years ago when the car was previously auctioned.
In my opinion, Erik would have been well-advised to have taken the high bid at that time and, for his sake, I hope the current market produces a comparable bid.
In my opinion, to hold up a complete recreation such as the current CSX2009 as anywhere comparable to the thoroughly original CSX2557 is sheer idiocy.
However, the market is not always rational. Hopefully, there is a mullet that takes CSX2009 off Erik's hands at a price near what he is looking for. But, to be sure, it won't be me!
