Actually, they do! Mr. Mustang posted a very humorous thread last year about an original Cobra getting snubbed by several, I believe, FF owners who did not spot it as original and proceeded to point out how poorly the car was built. I'm sure a quick search would turn that thread up; it was quite funny.
