No original Cobra came with a fiberglass body. I have seen one that the owner put a fiberglass body on to drive it and then put the aluminum body back on when he was ready to sell it. Either way, it is sad to see a nice car burned like that.

Well, that's not true.
Shelby (actually the company that succeeded it after the buyout, which then went public) still makes " original" Shelby Cobras in fiberglass.

But...does Nevan (the good brother) put twin roll bars on it?
Sorry, couldn't resist...

That's why he has three. One with two bars, one with one, and one with none. That way, no one can throw stones at him.

Ya see, it's this type of behavior that's forcing Evan to sell CSX4206 and buy a Porsche. He just couldn't stand the constant bullying by you guys.
You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Well, I am. And I'm still trying to get over the shock of Vicente Fox's language.

I am totally fine with my cheap CSX 'glass car and I have no shame. IMHO, a Porsche is a nice "second car" to the one that really rocks your world!

Those sitting on the fence can have stones thrown at them from both sides.
As for how I'd react if my cobra was on fire...
Sh1t! I reckon in the heat of the moment, I'd get out in a panic, run, waving and screaming, till I got to a safe distance, then proceed to stand around flapping my arms like a bamboozaled little fairy. 
Then after the thing had burnt to the ground, I think back, and wonder why I didn't pull the trigger on that plumbed fire extinguisher I paid extra for.
I'm reserving my judgement on this dudes actions, till I've experienced it myself.
I'm hoping to never be in that position.
