I believe the owner did the Frenching in of headlights and taillights after the car got to America. He wasn't saying that part was done in England. And that is only on the black cherry car. The other one he left as std trim around lights like every other Cobra out there.
I totally get that it is all suspicious, which is why I am here. Any advise on what to look for when I finally get to see the cars in person is appreciated.

200K buys a lot better than what you described, look at Kirkham Motorsports. Used these days, $130,000-$240,000

Keep in mind, that Kirkham also makes the body and chassis for the aluminum bodies, SAI continuation series cars.
