Seems that sometimes its better to own what we own (replicas, tributes, continuations, scratch built, kits) as there are less questions about what it is.

There seems to be more CSX2000 and CSX3000 cars now than were manufactured in the 60's particular to race cars. Its great that they have turned into the ultimate collectable however that means there are things to be careful of.

Once a car has a bad story, it always will as values are so high stories have a tendancy to stick or at least be written with multiple endings.

Thanks to all of those that are looking at the details and trying to keep track of them and also the correct story.

I have spent all day trying to post photos and have been denied access with the "Php has encountered an Access Violation at 7D611952" message.

How does one upload photos to the gallery? attach directly to post?

Help!

Can you load them to a photo hosting site and then post a link?

I'll try again, I would like to create a gallery in which I can upload photos, as raced, crash, parts, etc. Sorry for the upside down issue, original photos were right side up, I don't understand why it happened.

The Cunningham Cobra was very early in production, I've only found one car that looks like it out of tens of thousands of photos on Cobras.

It was an early Cobra, possibly one of the 260ci variety, a Mark I. The single photo I found is a publicity Cobra and also was used in a publicity photo regarding "My Little Cobra - Carroll Conners".

It was possibly in the first group of Mark I's that Shelby received from AC, when you look at the frame pictures, it would appear to be Cobra on one end and a ACE AC on the other, I hope someone out there is familiar with both marques.

Let the discussion begin....!
