I don't know which side should be most offended, the MGA folks or the Cobra folks?

To call it a cobra is really stretching a bit, ya think?

Did anyone notice that there is no separation between the passenger compartment and the trunk? It's like a tiny little station wagon. |

I am already surprised that Ole Shel hasn't busted fleabay for allowing replicas to be sold, in the same way that Rolex and others have. This one might put them over the edge. |

Looks like a cool little car. Looks like it's a Healey Sprite? Take away the fake Cobra badges and plates though. It is what it is...a hand built custom car with some sporty features. It's not like most of ours are any more authentic. Calling it a Cobra is a bit of a stretch though.

MGA for sure, looks like a MK I was the base. Does it look like the nose opening is not symetrical or is it an optical? |

Ron is right, I think it is funny how fast you can get a KMP cheerleader to respond to anything about the Kirkham cars. Was the comment out of line, I think not. Here is a REAL AC car hand made with an aluminum body for under $60k, in addition it is a coupe with a nice little V8. Even with its “obscure opaque-color “ it will turn heads. As for flushing money down the toilet, I think you must be joking. This car will sell for the same amount 5 years from now. And your car like every other Kirkham was 100k in and 70 k out and that will never change no matter how many years go by.
