but evidently the hardtops are sold out. 
there are some really quality builders out there!!
Marsh Models are exceptionally good- made in England, hard to find.
Exoto, Marsh, Kyosho, Franklin Mint, Creative Masters, all 'better quality'.
tons of cheap ones at Walmart, KB toys, toys R US, etc. just got to hit them on the right day.
For the better ones?? gotta order them! you don't just find them lying around. 
there are internet sites... Russ suggested one above....
'diecast models of Cobras'
type in 'diecast models of Cobras' and look at all the sources!!! 
I would LOVE to have that rusted out one!! wow, looks great!! no kidding!!!

These cars are not competition drag cars ,they are differnet versions of 260 and 289 street cobra`s,most of the cars in the photo are made by Exoto,apart from the Franklin Mint car and the Kyosho Cobra.
The BLACK 289 IS FITTED WITH SOFT TOP AND WEBBERS,the 2 red cars are FITTED WITH RED HARDTOPS,one with a holley carb and one with webbers.
The polished aluminium car is a COBRA 260 FITTED WITH S0FT TOP
As far as I know the only 2 companies who have produced drag race Cobra`s are Ertl and Marsh Models
