Bill, I'm not sure I understand your 1997-1998 dates.

My COB023 (prototype #23) was imported to the USA as a Hi-Tech in 1992. Production started with car #32 shortly after, and those cars had the Superformance name. As far as I know, the only Hi-Tech branded Cobras were the 23 prototypes produced (numbers 03-26.) Eight of those are known to still be around...mine being the only one in the USA.

Although Hi-Tech also produced cars for Shelby, I don't think that was until 2005 when the suit was settled, so a Cobra produced by Hi-Tech So. Africa in 1995 should be labeled a Superformance.


Kerry, maybe you could get a pic of the VIN plate on the firewall?

Starting a new thread for your car seems a good idea.

Bill H.
