The same grumpy fart that put his name on the AC's to make them Shelby Cobras in the 60's is the same grumpy fart that puts his name on the current CSX to make the new Shelby Cobra. Just in case you forgot.
Why spend the money difference for a CSX as opposed to a SPF?
Simple. One is a very nice replica of a Cobra (the SPF). The other is a Cobra. Period. You get what you pay for. REAL Shelby Cobras, new or old can be expected to be more expensive then pretend Shelby Cobras.
Oh. I've seen SPF also go for around $70K new from dealers. Seems like alot for a SPF.
I'd rather go the difference and buy a Kirkham or a glass CSX.
Lew: If the name, registry and pedigree aren't important to you (and to some they aren't) then get the Kirkham. Its the best alternative to a Shelby IMHO and fits your requirements perfectly.
