CAV was a BIG player in the fiberglass area, mostly boats. They built some nice GT-40's as well. I reckon the early and short production run was the main reason the Cobras were'nt up to par.

Their closing didn't have anything to do with Shelby as I understand it. Must have caught Shelby by surprise as well as many other people. Looks like it got down right nasty when CAV did close.
