Thanks all for the replies...

I'll pick up the Cobra over Christmas break. I hope I have as good luck as y'all and get it registered as a '66.

About the historic plates: Does anyone know if State Farm gives any discount for this classification?

Also, has anyone been to Firebird or Speedworld (drags) in one of these things? They don't care about my 12 sec Vette, but this thing is a convertible (and 11 sec)...

BTW my take on the Chev motor: This thing is not a replica. It is a TOY and I'm a long time Chevy guy. Its fiberglass and doesn't have the CVS rearend, suspension, 15" wheels, 1960s tires, or many other things a TRUE replica would. Also, this car has been clocked at 168 mph at Brainerd Intl Speedway (2.73:1 gear) and never beaks - great toy - scary windshield!!!

Sorry to disappoint the "purists", but I like it. I'll drive it like I stole it.
