As many of you have seen that an inexpensive project almost always goes way over budget and then you get to the dollar territory that can either have a Shelby tag or a Kirkham, the choice seems clear to me.
Forget the resale. Forget the detail. Forget the snob appeal. At the end of the day, I bet most would equal trade their XYZ Cobra for a Shelby or Kirkham and not look back.

I remember back in 1966 when the Addidas sneakers got popular. They were white leather with Black stripes and a lot of cash for a growing kid that was going to grow out of them in a season or so. My parents only got me the inexpensive vinyl ones. I always envied the kids that had the real ones. I knew the difference but only had the ability to have the practical copy.
-Today I have the leather ones.
If they were the same price in 1966 you can be sure I would have had the Addidas.
All am I saying that if the money is equal or really close at the end of the day, the other multitudes of Cobra Replica manufacturers will begin to lose market share.
