The one that's supposed to be 'scraped' at some point. A MKII FFR chassis with a Kirkham body mounted on it. That was done at Factory Five and later sold a few times. They did have pictures of incomplete aluminum cars with some funky over-sized flares on the rear. I suppose those were the South American cars?
I'm going to correct myself because in reviewing the pics I see what looks like nearly complete Cobra bodies. Apparently they have more than a couple fenders completed. My skepticism remain given their previous behavior.

So Kirkham made that perky butt body?? Wow...

All the pictures that Dave took including this one (at the top of this page) is taken from a FFR MKII & is now Alloycars creation in aluminum. The picture that Maricopa posted below is the Kirkham body that was put on a FFR & if it was about 10 years ago this happened, I'm sure it was also on a FFR MKII frame.

This is an open forum called "Cobra Talk." And I'm very sorry that you think I'm here to "create grief." I can only see what everyone else can see, which is considered light on evidence at this stage. I have no bias other than the fact that I get tired of folks who post "The Truth" on the Internet and provide minimal support to their "cause."
When Alloycars gets a FFR MKIV body and builds a Cobra, which is then sold to an independent 3rd party ("arm's length transaction"), who then provides their independent reviews of the Alloycars product, then I will try to be one of the first people to post a sincere congratulations and welcome to the alloy body club. And hopefully, there will be #2 and #3 and so on.
However, as of right now, I feel a bit like the movie character "Dave Skylark" (actor James Franco) from the movie "The Interview" (or maybe Seth Rogen's character), as he receives various gifts from the person whom he plans to interview, including a cute little puppy.

My only suggestion would be to go back to the earlier threads and see the response when I told them their car was a MKII. I told them nicely, and their response is all I need to know about them.
And for the record, they were told they had a MKII long before the show you mentioned, but why let a little truth from the past interfere with the truth of today.

Dan - I realize that. I was reacting to people's blind insistence that it is a Kirkham body when by looking at it its clearly based on an old generation FFR body shape.
