Cobra bodywork made in England in 2009?

[Historybuff]

I went to a speech by A. Boylan at the MPG meeting in Westchester, California Feb. 9th and she said that Shelby is building 12 Cobras a year with bodywork done in England by "the sons and grandsons of the guys who built the original coachwork."

Has anyone seen pictures of this operation? I know A.C. ordered them in the Sixties from some outside firm--is it the same firm?

I thought Shelby was getting the bodywork from those guys in Utah

I'm not sure what the history of the place is, but this is the place

thought the original bodys were pounded out over tree stumps by winos under a bridge.

Ol' Shel has learned the trick, I see: when the basic product isn't enough, keep turning out essentially meaningless "special editions" that the yokels will fork over big bux for.
