I suppose my comments may have left one or two manufacturers out in the cold. And I haven't personally seen each and every brand up close. Which is why I started the reply with "In my opinion".
Most here seem to be debating the shape of the body as to whether or not it is "accurate". This, for me, is only part of the equation. The frame, suspension, interior, dash, wheels, whether or not it has an FE in a 427 body style, lift-a-dots for the top, side curtain ferrules, roll bar (single or dual, right diameter tubing, right angle), etc. These all add up to whether the car looks like an original or not. Some brands you can spot right away. Others need a closer look to determine what they are. Some guys are building a Cobra street rod. Others desire one that makes a purist take a second look.
My advice still stands. It's a personal decision. Check out as many different brands as possible. I prefer brunettes. You may like blondes.
