Hmm, don't be so sure. Denis Bedford made a scale measurement of a model car, to design that XJ13 replica. It was considered a very accurate model and rumour has it that the body is accurate to 1/4" of an inch.

Actually doubt they would go to that much trouble for a Cobra as there are bodies around to copy. But it does make you think.
