To answer the original question:
You can certainly build a Cobra replica right.
What would you put in a 917 replica?
Family Classic Cars in OC had a 250 GTO replica that was superb. I don't know how period correct the engine was but it was an old Ferrari 12. Hand made one-off. $1,000,000. The original owner bought a...eh hmm...a real one and commissioned the replica to drive. It had really low miles btw.
On the other point:
One time at a get together, a guy tried to pass off his CCX as an original. He was telling this to a handful of Cobra owners (KMP, SPF, B&B, FFR). While the CCX was VERY nice and had cool details, it took on another persona when getting the 'real speil'. Sort of like finding a Canadian quarter in a coin return.
