It could very well be that the 5th edition is electronic. Time will tell.

I didn't want to say anything cause it's not first hand intel, however I heard there was a special "Purebred Edition" that only included real ones.

Meaning sections that are excluded are completion cobras, Brock coupes, CSX4000 and above series,Kirkham, safir and stuff like that.

"Purebred Edition"? That's funny, especially on the heels of allegedly one of the CSX3016's being auctioned off recently.

If we're truly talking about purebred, then that edition may only be a couple pages.

Years ago at Monterey I gave away what amounted to a few boxes of stuff I had collected on Cobras. Some people took just for the taking and I feel bad because I know some of the cobra guys would appreciate some of the stuff. I had hundreds of decals and some repros of the dragonsnake logo, I don't remember the mag but I had a few with Shelby and the owners signature that were featured on the cover. This came out around the time of a SAAC in Aneheim. gave away about 2 dozen copies of april 1966 Motor Trend signed by Bill Harrah which featured a major article on his collection. A few of Cosby's 200mph vinyl record signed. dozens of cool photos given away that I purchased from the Ford archives when they were made available some time ago. One of my assistants copied some of the material and made repros of press kits of the GT40, Mustang and cobra. I think those came from Shelby's PR man Don Rabbitt.

My question is that I gave a documented steering wheel from a wrecked vehicle at this time. Now I'm not mentioning anything else other than that but you mean allegedly someone can build a million dollar car around this steering wheel?

There is no VIN on the wheel, so you still have a REAL1 but not an original

I gave it away but it came from a real car. I was just wondering, I stated documented because I knew the history but no paperwork other than a pic of the car before it was wrecked. It wasn't a cobra.
