No company is going to make a model of a replica of a production car unless the replica manufacturer specifically commissions it to do so.

Having said that, the Franklin Mint Cobras in REal brushed aluminum are about the closest thing you'll find unless you customise a regular Cobra die cast model yourself.

EDIT TO ADD: If the Kirkhams themselves set the skunkworks sights on a precision model of a Cobra (or a Kirkham), based on everything else they create, it would be a model that would set a new high standard for the hobby/collector industry.
