The frame is neither round nor square, its welded and rectangular. Straight axle, 90" wheel base, and the body is.. not.. metal...can't remember who said it was "composite?"

Sorry... Brent is the founder of this site and for several years he tried to identify his first Cobra...all the oldtimers here tried to help but I don't think he ever identified it... Thus a "Brent Cobra"

Post some well-lit pics of the firewall (both sides) in the engine compartment. It has a wider-looking rollbar; the rear flares seem to extend out like an ERA; the fender louvers sre different than the NAFs I have seen.
Are the brake and clutch reservoirs visible and together?

Here's some other pictures of the "mystery" Cobra posted by a guy who was looking to buy the car. Similar angles and ultra close-ups...no wide shots.

A mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma.

I've been swamped and haven't had a chance to visit A&C. I'm going to be out and about this afternoon and will swing by to see what they have to say. I'll post this evening.

65whatthe,

Have you had a chance to take/post any additional pictures? All of the pics that you and Kjbagg posted look the same?
