Not Ranked
I looked at all the photos. "Vintage", "patina", both are OK, but at least they could have polished the top of the chrome air cleaner, couldn't they?
Take a look at the closeup of the fender vent....very nicely sculpted into the body. Nothing in the replica industry comes close, not even the Shelby replicas (although the Shelby replicas do have a nicely finished cutout where the sidepipes exit the body on the 427 models).
The 289 model is most assuredly my favorite of all the Cobras, but I think.....no, I KNOW...the FIA model is my clear favorite. Slab-sides look cool, but the FIA is HOT!
