Cobra replicas vary from one manufacturer to the next and to some extent by generations within a manufacturer. As a general rule independent rear suspension will have a more forgiving ride over solid rear axel cars. Cars setup for racing will have a stiffer ride than the same car sprung and setup for street use. A suspension system with more travel will generally absorb irregularities in the road better than those with less travel. This just scratches the surface of what affects the perceived ride comfort. Also, your perspective and tolerance will play into your decision. This is my opinion, as I’m no expert on Cobras or vehicle chassis and suspension.
