Last month we brought you the bizarre legal battle revolving around the long-lost Cobra Daytona Coupe prototype CSX2287. At the heart of the battle were several parties claiming to now own the car after its most recent owner, Dorothy Brand, committed suicide in October.<\/p>\n

In court documents, Spector claims that he intended to keep the car as a long-term investment and had asked his bodyguard to arrange storage.<\/p>\n
