Sorry - can't resist - that's one problem you won't have in a Cobra Bob :LOL:

Must say that GT40 is a beaut.

Love the Essex Wire livery.

Saw Shelby Continuation Cobra run in the Vintage race last year at Watkins Glen with that livery.

Very nice.

What is an Exact Cobra... I must admit I don't know.. Do they have a web site.

It's really a great experience. 1960s performance car with A/C......Love it! I'm only 5'11 and plenty room and I don't even have the Gurney bubble. I have my seat up off the bulk head about 4 inches and the pedal box is half way back. Guy I bought the car from was 6'3.

They are an exact duplicate of a CSX 4000 and/or Kirkham made with Carbon Fiber. Same round tube frame, suspension and parts use on the Shelby. Awesome car built in Austin, Texas. Roger Bolick was the builder and he built and sold 10 cars and I was the last sale in 2010. He has one completed car not painted he is finishing and enough parts to build one more. I've been pushing him to build more but he has been tinkering with TR6s... The other day we were discussing GT40s and Daytona Coupes and he seemed interested in the Couple. That would be cool in Carbon Fiber!

Sold my Exact last November to a guy in France to purchase a GT40 but if I ever wanted another Cobra I'd look for another one or push Roger to build another..........Few Pics!

This car has all the aluminum powder coated as seen in this view of the trunk.

I chose the 351W for my build and the car has more than enough zip!
