Wendall,

It's an Exact Cobra made in Austin, Texas. He built 12 cars and this was actually his demo/showroom car and he is building a new one now. They are duplicates of a CSX3000 and the body is made out of Carbon Fiber. The body only weighs 64 lbs. Frame is round tube like original, same suspension, etc. It's really a cool car. My engine plan is a Keith Craft FE most likely a 496 with a solid roller and TKO600. Still debating a few things like aluminum block or not etc. Not rushing as it's too darn hot to work on it any way so probably won't be on the road until fall some time as Keith is 5 to 6 weeks out on a motor and I haven't even ordered it yet. Lots of Cobras in the past and have to say I'm extremely excited about this one and love the attention to detail on the frame, supension etc....
