I couldn't compare the two as the cars are so different. Both nice in their own way.

But Kirkham is alloy, supplies bodies to Shelby. I would compare it to other alloy replicas (AC, McKluskey, who else?). The "K"'s are simply not in the same league as a glass car, any glass car including Shelby's.

Or,,,, it's strictly a cost comparison? If the glass car is close to the cost of the alloy, go alloy. The "K" car virtually demands a 427 egnine (original or Shelby alloy block). Whereas the SPF will be right at home with a nice 351 which should save a bundle of money.
