My memory seems to differ from most people on this forum. The Cobras that I seen in the 60's look nothing like the top 5 list. What I remember is that the cars just looked mean and nasty not straight. What caught my eye was the fact that all cars looked theaked out of square. The bodys never looked symetrical. The stance of the cars was not level thay looked like some one had jacked them up untill the body twisted on the frame. Under the hood I always seen some
oil residue from blow-buy and frayed wireing was also the norm. So if you want an orginal looking car put on cheap paint mount the body un level on the frame and install used wireing. It looks like the you can really do anything you want. No i'm not bashing the car I have wanted one since I seen the first ones race. I still have a cigar box with pictures of cobras glued on the side that I made when I was a small boy. Some day I will have one and It will will be a compromise from what I have dreamed of for years as most things in life are. I would recommend get what you want not what others perecive as the original look.
