Wonderful photo of your Dad and his Cobra. Looks like a great build, will your FIA emulate elements of his car?

The red seats, maybe? A great project!

I have great memories in that car, I learned to drive a stick in it. It was a bit of a monster, Gurney Westlake heads, Webers, hot cam and a HD clutch. This build is going to be built to look like a vintage track car with the stuff you see as original looking as possible and the stuff you don't see upgraded to modern tech. Without the hood scoop I guess I will have to be a 1967 B Production car. One of the "original details" I added were correct hood latches.

Where'd you get the hood latches? I love original (or more original) parts - but too often don't know what needs to be changed out, or what it needs to be changed out for!

Great photo of your dad, too!
