I built a Kirkham Cobra in 2004. The same conversation, same people, was going on then. Kirkham bodies and frames, Shelby badging and "Continuation" paperwork. As far as I'm concerned an "original" was built between 1962 and 1967, the "continuation" is a Kirkham bodied copy of the original. If someone wants to think their "continuation" is any more a Cobra than any of the ERA's Kirkham's, Classic, etc, have at it. I loved the Kirkham and it would blow the doors off an original. Wish I still had it. All that matters is that you are happy with your Cobra, that's it!
