CSX7024 for sale

Yes it is a "Shelby" and you have to give props to SAI .. to have structured a marketing program in which they are able to have Superformance build a car for them .. that they can then put in the Shelby registry and mark up something like $50,000 because it is sold by SAI rather than Superformance. I really like the slab side and if I were to add another cobra replica to the garage I would have to look really hard at Superformance and ERA for a great car at a price point around $75,000 (depending on motor).

How many times do we have to revisit this subject? The Shelby Cobras built in SA are completely different from the Superformance cars. Do a search and you'll find the details.

I get it - you have a strong prejudice against Shelby. Feel however you want but get your facts straight.

HST was an American company with a maquiladora in TJ. One thing they specialized in was CF products.

HST was not commissioned by SAI to strictly manufacture for LA, that is ridiculous. But the few HST made CSX numbers with the LA suffix were, from conversations I've had with an HST exec as well as confirmations from people like Tony (and just confirmed in the Registry), built exclusively for the 'LA' market (the rich Mexican guys).

I think there was a misunderstanding in the previous posts. It read as if CompClassics thought twobjshelbys claimed that HST was a manufacturer strictly for LA.

.

As I recall their primary business was "armored vehicles" - you know the bullet proof glass and body converted cars like limos and SUVs. I think they did both civilian and police vehicles but it's been so long and their web site is gone.

The Cobra thing was a passion of the owner.
