Looks nice. This is the first CSX continuation car that I have seen that has a top, side curtains and tonneau cover. Is the all weather package on continuation cars more common than I have noticed?

Love the fact it has no stripes.

It looks really good and the only thing I noticed was the center of the rear wheel knock off is missing.

My similarly equipped 4000 series with "Billboard" Goodyears handles very well on the street, a properly set up suspension/ tire pressure is the key. I don't have any "road walk" on uneven surfaces, but you will feel every bump basically due to tire construction.

Many of the comp set-up Cobras don't have the cap on the rear wheels - you don't need them anyway. Not sure why, but I haven't noticed any flat spotting
on my billboards here in Texas, and the roads here are far better than those in Hawaii were! They do hunt and sort on some of the roads - noticeably when you change counties, where you go from cruising to "hang on".
I wonder if the seller has an agreement with Kirkham to rebody it with aluminum
since he asked the question.

If the link you used is in the original post the auction ended last year, and the link forwards you to "something similar". The original link is at the "view original item".

Just a hint ebay links have a lifetime...
