And the only number on the car is "666." So, it's the devil's car. 
The OP's Cobra has no Kirkham markings and I don't remember anything in the Registry about cars leaving the Kirkham factory without a Kirkham marking/VIN. And that doesn't sound like Kirkham to me anyway, shipping an alloy body that can't be tracked.
There are many folks out there that are quite talented, certainly not me that's for sure. And there's no secret on how to scratch build an alloy body, since the recipe is online or I'm sure anyone can tour the Kirkham factory and learn directly from Kirkham.
Notwithstanding, based upon your postings, I will not eliminate the possibility that the OP's car could be a Kirkham. I just think the probability is extremely low. |
My opinion on Kirkham not wanting to get involved or comment with this car is just mine and only my opinion. It was obviously not stamped with the COB number by them but rather by someone after it left their control, if it is indeed one of their cars. As I said, my thoughts only. Maybe they will comment. Don't know. Have you contacted them and asked for their thoughts on it?
