That one was for sale in the low 40s and could probably have been picked up for around 42. It just takes a little looking and maybe visiting sites like Auto Trader and for sale forums on sites like this, rather than relying exclusively on Cobra Country. Patience is obviously key.
If any of the older pre-Kirkham brands deserved the title of "most accurate Cobra replica" it probably should've been Hi-Tech (The Tom D'Antonio cars - not the SPF parent company). Absolutely beautifully executed - especially with the aluminum hood, door and trunk lid options.
