FIA-ERA,

In my opinion it depends on the car, or in this case, Cobra.
For a vintage Cobra, word of mouth is strong as well some of the finer auction houses and premeir dealers. A premeir dealer selling a replica can get TOUGH (long wait to sell, optimistic asking price, 'different' clientele).
For most good quality replicas I believe Cobra Country is the best way to go. Ebay has seen all types but they wouldn't be at the top of my list.
Local options like Craigslist limits your buyers by your area.
I've had luck with in Hemmings. I bought my Autokraft through 'them' and IMO seemed like the best fit for such a Cobra.

Funny though, I bought my SPF from Craigslist and got very good deal. If the seller had advertised on Cobra Country I'm sure he would have gotten very close to his asking price.

For an ERA, I'd say Cobra Country is the best bet. People looking for an ERA will find Cobra Country. I'm pretty certain of that.
