Might I suggest the purchase of the new World Registry of Cobras? 
There's some great information in there. |
Well it turns out that Jeff was right all along. MkI Cobras are the worm-and-sector cars and MkIIs are the rack-and-pinion cars, according to the SAAC registry (p. 1598).
But you are mistaken as to the meaning of "CSX." It's a common misconception that it stood for "Carroll Shelby Export." See page 1593 for the correct meaning.
