If you want to alter the facts and omit the rest of the MSO, then yes, they are marketing them as 1965 cars. But the actual MSO specifically states the date of manufacture and that the vehicle has not been seen public hands before that date.

Sal,
The problem arises because they use "1965" in their description under model. If the description read "Cobra 427" I do not think the marketing ploy that CSI currently uses would be as effective. Is the car really a "1965 Cobra 427", clearly no.......So why bother to add the year in the description except to muddy the waters just a bit. As a further knock, where do you think Unique got all of their ideas from, yup, you guessed it CSI/CSL.
