I too have just recently completed a Shell Valley Cobra. I did a lot of research before choosing the Shell Valley kit... and I'm glad I did.
The SV kit is outstanding in quality and likewise for the customer support. No parts were missing or damaged and only the axles were incorrect for the 3rd member which was VERY QUICKLY corrected.
The body was prepped by a proffessional and took approx 50 hours. I've heard that some Factory 5's can take up to 200hrs....ouch!
Dana and Bruce are two of the greatest guys you'd ever want to deal with in customer support for a company such as this.
Their response to questions and dealing with minor issues was immediate and always taken seriously.
My next project just may be a coupe or roadster and you can bet that I'll be calling SV when the time comes.

Truedog, you're going about it the right way.
Do the research...(lots), look at the facts, then make your own decision.

Signed,
One happy SV customer
Pete
