Not Ranked
I have to tip my hat to Summit for doing the Cobra cover and the tri-fold article/calendar/poster-ette. This concept is a good one and I hope Summit keeps it up.
However... personally ... in MY opionion (My opionion and 2 cents still does not buy you a coffee), the Cobra shown is not really much to my liking at all. As far as I can see, so may variations have been employed into the composition of this car that it would have to be considered just Cobra-like. I wish he had gone really wild and dropped in a Hemi with a blower and wheely bars and parachute. Take it over the top in to realm of ree-friggin-diculous.
The interior is ghastly. The wheels are bling-bling. Overall it does not appeal to me at all.
Maybe I missed them ...but I bet there are neon lights somewhere under the car. 
On the other hand, I you wanted to build a rod, that had a Cobra-ish look... then this is possibly one variant that you could end up with?
To each his own.
I hope the owner is happy with end result of this project.
However, I am in a quandry... Do I include this edition of the Summit catalog in my Cobra bibliography? Hummm?
