Oh my god, you have got to be kidding!!! Firstly, quote "Sorry but this is the type of thing that has assisted in destroying the image of the original Cobra". How many Cobra (replica) owners get asked, is it real? Most of the guys in the club over here reckon that would be the single most asked question of all. Most people don't ask what engine it has, most wouldn't have a clue anyway.
Replica's come in all shapes, sizes and quailties. Just remember, your car (albeit a very nice one) is no more a real Shelby Cobra than mine is...
From outside the vehicle, how can you tell what motor it has??? I will make this very easy on my car, my number plates will be "LS1 COBRA". I will probably have stickers promoting my business too, "LS1TUNE.... Tuning GM's finest".
A post like yours makes me want to get, "NOT FORD" number plates....
