Real Ford: You might want to consider one of the Cobra's that Shelby is building through CAV in South Africa. I spoke with a rep at the Monterey Historics over the weekend, and they are offering an introductory price of about $40k, plus engine and trans. XK's Unlimited does a nice build. They are in San Luis Obispo (I went to Cal Poly). The rep quoted a 90 day leadtime for the car to hit the states once ordered. One of these with a Shelby 427 FE and a top loader would make a truly *****in' car. I can provide the rep contact info if you want it.

Kirkham makes a fine aluminum car. Superformance makes a nice, tight, fiberglass car.

In registering your car, check with your local Shelby enthusiasts club. I'm sure you can find someone that could help you through the registration process.
