ageishecker Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 (edited) Why do the knock-offs on CSX 6045 appear to read "American Shelby Inc" instead of "Shelby American Inc"? Are they all like this? Edited October 23, 2012 by Al G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Good catch. Did you ask on the Cobra forum? I'll have to go back through old photos to see what mine said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't asked there. I can't imagine getting a serious answer from that crowd lately. Especially for a Shelby question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will agree with that assessment. Unbiased forum, right. It must because it says so in their title. The Shelby factory guys don't spend much time here. Maybe Jer or Steve will see this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ageishecker Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Here is a picture of the knock-off on CSX 7000 in the museum. That's what I expected them to look like. I wonder if I just got a bad lot and how many like them are out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ageishecker Posted October 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 Jonathan, Can you ask whoever is overseeing the Cobra program these days to comment? These were on the car when I took delivery earlier this year. Seems to me if these are from a bad lot SAI would want to know and take action. Thanks.

twobjshelbys Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 You could have a collectors item. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MY500SS Posted October 25, 2012 Report Share Posted October 25, 2012 You could have a collectors item. Funny...............I was thinking it could be a cool forging mishap that only 6045 has. Pretty cool if that were the case.......unlikely but cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
