Like I've said before except for a very few of us we all own streetrods/hot rods with Cobra bodies. Some detail them down to the last rivet, others customize them to their tastes--never was an original Cobra painted orange, or Candy RED, or viper blue, or any of the other colors we often see them painted, they didn't have "ghost stripes", or flames, or Chevy engines, or Buick engines, or blowers, or 16-18 inch wheels or MSD or other electronic ignition systems, or Wilwood disc brakes, let alone fuel cells, stereos, and on and on when Shelby sold them to the public.
The owner of the Summit Cobra may very well have had his build "twisted" out of context by the writer of the article--the last one they did about a cover car was also a little warped in "fact".
Personally I think it is an ok replica, not to my taste, but....--maybe the builder did find fault with the WCC body and frame, because it didn't meet his standards, after all he builds custom rods etc for a living. BFD, it is his car featured on the cover and in the calender insert , not yours or mine, until we get on the cover I don't think we really have a right to ***** and complain about someone elses ride,
