Point well taken richsd, the accepted level of what is generally considered a 'replica' Cobra continues to deteriorate on a daily basis. Boldy many proclaim they could care less about 'history' or 'accurate' details when it comes to building their replica. Some of that HAS to filter down to those restoring the originals and lowering the standards there as well.

By 'latest' information I'm referring to MANY examples of what was once commonly held to be 'fact' being corrected by people coming forward or history slueths taking a second look. The SAAC manual will contain many such corrections as our knowledge of these cars CONTINUES to improve with a more in depth look. Such as your observation concerning the original steering wheels!

While there may many original owners who have no interest in POSTING on Club Cobra, they would be a fool to ignore CC when it comes to accuratly verifying history. In fact, I'm surprised at the number of original owners that DO grace this forum with their insights. Quite remarkable I'd say.
