I'm building a very primitive Cobra Kit from a company, now out of business. My gauge cluster will not match original layouts and will not even be as complete as the pretty ones in the magazines. My suspension is painted black, I wont have IRS in the rear and my horsepower will be modest but hopefully reliable. I am building it as best I can with what I have. I suspect it will probably be a closer representation of what Shelby originally did - built an original from something that already exists based on a vision of his preference. I've talked to several guys with Cobras and came to the conclusion that so many of them don't know a thing about cars except "You pay, you turn the key and it goes Varooom!!! And that feels good no matter what the cost and no matter what the car is. Love your car and have your fun driving it. It's all anyone needs to know. Original, kit, or extreme replica, it's a car not a measuriing stick.
