Go to any car show every where you look are hot rods built so far beyond what they were originally nobody seems to have a problem calling them what they came off the factory floor as.
A Harley with after market engine is still a Harley to me, of course a small minority will argue that.

The way I see it our Cobra is everything I ever imagined a small two seater big block powered car could ever be and then some. Best of all I built it from the ground up but more important nobody is going tell me it is not a Cobra. After all except for things only the perfectionists would harp on about, this car is as good a representation of the original 427 cars as there is.

I'm participating in a Cobra forum should never be a need to defend it yet with some it is hard not to. That by itself makes me less eager to visit this forum. Thankfully though the majority of members here want to communicate and are not so one sided.
It is obvious we all own cars that stir enough emotion to defend them. Some days I feel like going toe to toe other days it is just not worth the aggravation.
