Yes.
Why? Because "They (Kirkhams) can be used to complete the reconstruction of original serial numbered Cobras or to build totally new vehicles. They (the Kirkhams) also sensed the a market for parts which could be used to restore or reconstruct original Cobras because the specifications would be virtually identical." Quote taken from page 846 of the World Registry.
Shelby's CSX4000's and 6000's use Kirkham bodies. Just a an approximation, but of the 600 Kirkhams produced, 250 +/- were delivered to Shelby, at least that's what I remember the Kirkhams stating in a thread some time ago.
