Have no fear. This car is in good hands. I just saw it (along with 1021, 1037, and 1015) in its current state this morning. It was bought by Larry Miller (who owns the other cars as well, along with 10 or 12 original Cobras), and is to be carefully restored to racing trim while retaining its patina. If you've seen his other cars (e.g., at Monterey), you know that it'll be done properly and tastefully...
