have these emblems what i believe is nos Shelby Cobra emblems, both fender, and glove box (?) all three have part # C90B-6542508-A . Got them from an older guy and the original wax paper over the adhesive looks pretty old. Cobra experts? At first i thought they were SVT but i noticed both fender emblems face the same way and they eyes are not outlined in black like the newer cobras/svts. thanks ![http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0238.jpg](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0238.jpg) ![http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0242.jpg](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0242.jpg) ![http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0244.jpg](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0244.jpg) ![http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0243.jpg](http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s179/turbograndprix/SAM_0243.jpg) ---

A quick google of the number makes them lean more towards NOS. Whether they are originals or NOS replicas is to be determined, but I can say that the originals were made of pewter instead of pot metal. ---

Those are 1968 Shelby GT500KR front fender; 1969-1970 Shelby Convertible Quarter Panel snake emblems. Throw them up on ebay for $150 for all 3. They sell them repro for about 20 each. ---

no, he just listed the particular car model year and fitment location of the cars those emblems belong on. ---

C9 is a designation for 69, those were used on the 69-70 Shelby on the roof along with a “COBRA” emblem located right below them. A lot of the emblems appear to be the same sometimes but I double checked the part #. ![http://forums.themustangsource.com/gallery/files/8/8/2/0/0/5_200997.jpg](http://forums.themustangsource.com/gallery/files/8/8/2/0/0/5_200997.jpg) ---

These are the repro ones for the 69/70 Shelby I personally would list them as that. [http://store.sacramento-mustang.com/1969-1970-fastback-coiled-snake-emblem-roof-convex-p890.aspx](http://store.sacramento-mustang.com/1969-1970-fastback-coiled-snake-emblem-roof-convex-p890.aspx) I should have kept the GT500 KR fender emblems someone had stuck on my 69 Mach 428 SCJ, a lot of these emblems are crazy $$. The guy that bought my Mach 1 had it restored by a shop that does high dollar cars like this GT500 KR [http://thecobrajetranch.com/Site/1968\_SHELBY\_GT500KR.html](http://thecobrajetranch.com/Site/1968_SHELBY_GT500KR.html) my old car is under the SCJ, they changed the color to red though which was stupid. It was all date code matching from the rear end to the engine…I took a lot of time going through every piece and writing the date codes down and cataloging the part #'s to verify it was correct. ---
