Ive owned an alum Hi Tech car, its in my photos. I agree that the bodies were better made. Mine had better welds and the seams finished easier. There were only 11 Hi Tech alum cars ever made. Most of those bodies were made by a company in Lake Havasu Az. They werent exact replicas of the original Cobra. I just believe they were better. The rear wheel well opening shapes were rounder at the rear. The front spoiler area is lower to the ground in the corners and the rear skirt is lower leaving more body under the tail lights. I think the Kirkham Cobra has been a great car and have nothing against them at all. Just an opinion.
