I read all three links and only one I saw that may be what you were inferring about as non favorable as people making fakes or clones of the real thing, but what does that have to do with Cosby having owned it for a minute before sending it back to Caroll Shelby? I’m guessing the part of the guy buying the wreck and selling it as “original” after most parts will be aftermarket, would be seen as shady, maybe what you are referring to?
