Stress free body? I was not aware that ANY re-creation Cobra available on the market today was any different in that regard.

I don't know of a single one that uses the body as a "stressed agent". The "body" is just along for the ride.

SOME of the early cars had the body bolted\screwed\glued directly to the "frame" without benefit of "isolaters" such as, rubber, silicone or some kind of vibration absorbtion mounting. Some of these EARLY cars could and did develop "cracks" as a result.
