SPF is very close, they just made the nose rollover a little pointy. FFR has it's perky butt deck lid, but pretty close otherwise. CR is way further of, with it's stretched wheelbase and weird door line. I don't think there were two originals with the same body lines anyhow. As long as you don't get one with a wider or longer body, stretched wheelbase, or a west coast, they are pretty original in shape.

Shop around for a used SPF, drive it for a year, then you will know what you REALLY want out of your cobra, and rarely is it the same thing you thought you wanted all these years.
