Not Ranked
Shelby /Kirkhams COBRAS
Sorry Allen
KMPS013/CSX7041 Kirkham/SAI of 700? is the most accurately
detailed Continuation Cobra to original specification.
AC Ford Cobras CSX # were aluminum bodies with gas welded mild steel
tubular frames made by AC cars of the UK. Kirkham continuation Shelby
Cobras are aluminum bodies with mig and tig welding alloy steel tubular
frames clones and of a higher guilty to the AC cars of the UK and made in
Poland at an mig air craft factory. As for Mr. Shelby he was the first kit car
maker and what a great car it is and I know I have owned 4 of them. The
Auto Craft bodies of Bryin Anglos were nicer than the AC of Thames Ditton
UK. And Kirkhams are nicer still.
Thank You

I'm sure the signature line in David's posts has more history in it than can be told over the time needed to drink a case of beer. David is a much better man than I could ever be for being able to walk the fine line of being in business with the old man........while not officially being affiliated with him.
