No question part of the reason to catalog all these cars is to help prevent fraud and fakes from being sold especially with regard to the original cars but the odds of that have reduced over the years with the information available.

However, the Registry as a separate and distinct section on definitions found at page 30 which clearly and succinctly define what cars qualify as Cobras, original Cobras, current production Cobras and what the definition of Kit Car or Replica is.

These definintions were set forth by those more knowledgable than me and likely you on these cars and to set the standards as the Registry points out most owners tend to act in their own self interest in their definitions of what they own.

Look, I don't own a Kirkham so I really don't give a rat's patuty if you want to continue to denigrate your own cars. Have at it. However, the Registry acknowledges your cars as Cobras. There are AC Cobras and Kirkham Cobras. You want to continue to refer to your Kirkhams as "replicas" or kit cars be my guest.

1ntCobra: What is your source that Kirkhams have motor mounts farther back then the originals. I have never read that anywhere nor in any Kirkham literature . The nip points are different than the originals and the welding is Tig instead of arc to differentiate them.

It is correct SAI does mount their own suspension that is different than Kirkhams and as original except stronger chrome molly, at least as of 14 years ago when my car was assemble by SAI.

I bet my KIT car could beat your KIT car...
