The Mexico link is really HST International whose offices were in San Diego and whose manufacturing facility was in Mexico.
The South African "parent" company is Hi-Tech Manufacturing, and they make lots of cars besides Cobras. And they did a few alloy cars along the way (notably, two of the alloy CSX9000 coupes [not the 50th anniversary editions] were built by hand at Hi-Tech. I almost bought one, and Lance said they could build another if asked.

I never professed to be an expert. I do know a fair amount about original Cobras and the learning never stops. Something you could adopt as well.
As I stated before, I don't know as much about the Cobra 427 and even less about the current replicas sold by Shelby or SPF (except the SPF Leaf Spring), hence my posting. If I have questions about replicas from South Africa though, I'll be sure to ask you.
