I looked at it today. It is a part of an estate of which the family is finishing the car to sell.
The owner died and they are liquidating lots of stuff in his collection. It looks to be a totally built car from the ground up. The primary builder was Chuck Gutkie ? of Cobra restorers in Kennesaw Ga and has been under construction for around ten years. Has a Kirkham body, coil suspension, wide rear fenders, and a correct 66 crossbolted side oiler 427 engine.
Will look further for the vin with info you have given.
History not known. Said to be re-bodied and re- framed after an incident in Europe and came back here in pieces??? Family thinks it is worth a fortune and they may be right??? It is very well put together but who knows as to history and legitimacy.
More info as i get it. Bob W.

Rebodied, reframed, and built from the ground up does not sound to me like the ingredients for a Cobra worth a fortune.
