Cobra (Thames Ditton) Forum / Re: Is this an original Cobra? And if so, can anyone identify its chassis number?

SunDude,
The ACOC Replicas Appendix has some 100 CSX/COX/COB 'VIN Asserted' cars, all twenty first century constructions, none AC built. The Club's Cobra registrar regularly adds to the list.
As Council so wisely wrote twenty years ago 'The prime beneficiaries of an accurate register are not today’s owners, but tomorrow’s. A full and accurate register can show a potential purchaser the facts about a car he is proposing to buy: it will also allow an owner to confirm his car’s true provenance and prevent an unscrupulous owner or dealer distorting a car’s history to enhance its value.'
Perhaps European forum readers can help with VIN asserted?
