When I was a kid in school (sixties), too young to have a car of any type, I read every car magazine I could get my hands on, and from what I remember reading many times over, CSX stood for Carroll Shelby Experimental. Never read once about "export" back then, and I drooled over the Cobra for many years. Kids are very impressionable, and usually have good memories about what they covet. Whatever, just my fifty cents (what car mags cost back then).

Just some background. My shelby library-The Cobra Story by Carroll Shelby-AC Cocbra by Brian Laban-Shelby,The Man,The Cars,The Legend byWyss-Carroll Shelby Racing Cobra by Petrson Publication special edition-American Super Cars byRoger Huntington-AC Cobra 1962 to 1965 by Brookland Books-Cobras and Replicas1962 to 1983 by Brookland Books-Shelbys Wildlifeby Wyss-The Complete Book of Shelby Automobiles by Colin Comer-Cobra the First 40 Years byTrvor Legate-Shelby Cobra Fifty Years by Colin Comer-Cobra The Real Thing byTrevor Legate-Cobra The Shelby American Original by Dave friedman. Plus well over 1000 magazine's, I have read them all. I have been a Cobra guy since 1976 (when I first saw it in Gumball Rally) and I have been a Cobra replica owner for almost 33 years in wihich I have built and rebuilt my Cobra shaped Hot Rod 2 1/2 times. But I have to admit like you guy's have said when it comes to Cobra's I am just an idiot and don't know a thing. Thank god for you guy's to set my mind straight.
