Then you're in luck! Since no one but AC Cars was manufacturing a Cobra chassis in 1965, it woukd have to be a genuine car, with a CSX, COX, or COB chassis number. First, marvel at your good fortune, then throw the fiberglass body into the dumpster, restore the car properly with an alloy body, and you're good to go!
