Is this suppose to be the same cobra?

CSX 3053
It said that CSX3053 was purchased by Stuart H. of NYC in the mid 1970s, then repainted black with silver stripes (from red). When the car was offered for sale in Aug 1976, it had chrome roll bar and side pipes and Halibrand wheels. That sounds like the car in your photos.

Apparently 3053 was repainted red w/white roundels in the mid 1990s when it was restored by Cobra Automotive.

Did I cheat...? I dunno. I've never seen the car in person, so had to turn to my books for the answer.
