I think the value of the older REAL cars will continue to climb and will even be boosted by these whore cars. however the market is becoming a mess and will get confusing. any dumb wannabe punk with too much money can go out and buy a real-recreated-air-authorized-signed version and think they are real or even better. other than the el-marko signature (or after he dies the 'sticker') that is placed on it. just what makes these cars more real than the copyies we make. shelby is not making these. shelby is not even really authorizing these, his cronies are. just wait till he dies and these authentic copies are still bieng made, who is authorizing them? his cronies. anyone want to buy any authentic-recreated artwork? bob
