Everett-Morrison makes an excellent car – but they are not “real” Cobras. No CSX number, it’s not a Shelby Cobra. Unless you mean he took off the original aluminum body in favor of a replica fiberglass one. That would be the strangest thing I’ve ever heard then. Taking a real Cobra and doing everything you can to make it look like a replica.

I believe it does indeed have a CSX number...
I know that the rear wheel tubs for example (they're unlined) tend to pick up stone dings that push the metal OUT instead of in. -Even on the fibreglass, this tends to put "spiders" in the fiberglass, and so the fiberglass one has been on for a while, -At least the E-M and Superformance bodies will fit on a Shelby Frame... I'm told that the Factory Five and others are a slightly longer(?) wheelbase, and don't drop on...

superformance makes 2 cobra's. their own replica's, and the CSX NEW shelby cobras are also made in the superformance factory. "kit" or not, the new cobras will spank a original, be more reliable, and are almost perfect continuations of the originals.
The cobra in the pic is a Superformance car IMO. It looks identical to the cobras in our showroom. AS well, no one with a original would put sparco's in their car...
superformance cobras are also listed in the shelby registry.
