I'm not aware of Contemporary building any alloy bodied 289 replicas, but I suppose anything is possible - others here will know. Are you sure the prefix is CCX and not COX? If it is COX, then it might be a very valuable AC built Cobra and 1968 would be a legitimate production year. If it is indeed a CCX, then the registration year is falsified as Contemporary didn't exist until the 80's / 90's.

CCX is indeed Contemporary
All their numbers started as CCX3-3XXX they may have used a CCX3-2XXX for the 289? Dunno...... 
CCX frames were capable of conversion to alloy but lots of work and of course would not pre-date 1980.
COX = Valuable.....
Depends on the $ing as to what you should do.
If its a car that is COX and can get FIA papers it has 6 figure value.
If it is a CCX you may want someone to look at it to validate what you have. |

Jeff,
The Contemporary 289FIA VIN numbers were:
CCX2-250x...they built 7 of them....'1' thru '7' I believe is the last digit...5 live in the US, 2 in the UK.
