Unfortuantely I won't be home for another 2 weeks so I can't photocopy or send you a view of where the number could be....it was occasionaly on the actually curved part of the hinge which attached the trunk lid to the car. It was not on every car and on different places on some cars. This was in addition to the chassis number in the proper location on the manufacture's plate. This is information which I read and saw a photo of in one of my Cobra reference books.
Ok, here is my research answer when I got back home.....and I am going to apologize for my mistakes up front here, I screwed up in my reference as I didn't have my resource with me so here is the correction and my apology....In the book,
"Original AC ACE and COBRA" by Rinsey Mills...page 36, there is a picture of a stamped chassis number on a red bonnet (hood) hinge but the picture is not from a Cobra but from its earlier 6 cylinder version , the AC Ace. The hinges were sometimes stamped with the chassis number. I apologize for my mistake and hope I didn't lead anyone too far astray...

$100K USD? A Kirkham or Shelby 4000 series replica will cost that much. Show me an original with an asking price of $100K and I will show you someone that has no idea of what they are selling. I will actually be going to look at an original that I may purchase in a week or two. I sure hope the current owner will consult with you when determining the asking price.
