I too have read a few times in different places that (Allied Industries) was actually the first Cobra replica manufaturer. They supposedly also produced the first replica GT40 replica in 1967.

Quote from a TotalKit car article:

"Allied Industries who also had the distinction of being the first Cobra replica manufacturers too although it was very basic and very crude and could only be deemed a replica if you closed one eye and squinted"
