Default I know where 1 original Le Mans hard top is!
Seen here in 1967,
...and 2003, it lives in Wrexham, with one of the 2 original Le Mans Cobras, 39 PH(CS2131).

There are a fair number of copy L.M. hardtops around, but I think the original count was 4, CS2130 & 2131 had 1 each, but 2130 never went to Le Mans, so I believe the hardtop was fitted to CSX2142. The other 2 I think were for 2 of the Le Mans replicas, but I should check my archives before I swear to that!
