David,

I love your cars and maybe someday I will own a nicely appointed Slabside. It is a need that will need to be realized at some point.

As for the frame: 4" ROUND TUBE
Why: I love the cars for their classic drive
Preference: Slabside transverse leaf however I would sacrifice originality for the Coilover hybrid. 427 car = 4" ROUND TUBE.........
Why I love KMS: They are great aluminum reproductions of a great classic line of cars......Masterfully executed I must add.

To be honest the round tube frame is what sold me on the Contemporary. I love the Cobra because it replicates a historically significant car and drives like one. If I wanted a space age frame I would also want the corresponding body = Lotus, Vette, Panoz, or FFR GTM.

Would I ever buy a KMS Cobra with billet frame: No
Would I buy a KMS billet frame shrouded by a supercar aluminum boby: YES, after a KMS Cobra with 4" round tubular frame of course!

No tubes is like no boobs.........
