OK, so my initial reaction to that interior idea is
!!!
You came here to see what the response would be to your ideas in order to gauge potential resale. Those responses are a clear reflection of exactly what will happen when that day finally comes to sell your dream car. Not trying to be nasty here, but if you put a whacky interior into any of the Cobra makes, it WILL devalue it... plain and simple, doesn't matter which it is. That is not to say that you won't ever find the guy/girl that says, "Oh my, I've just got to have that car!," or that you shouldn't do it. That is your decision.
And I agree with most everyone else that if you want a mod interior, while the K car is much nicer, you probably should go with the FFR, which certainly has its place among replicas... not bashing FFR, or go with the Street Beasts.
This may not be intuitive, but it's just my hunch that the market for a weirded out FFR or Street Beasts is greater than for the equivalently weird K car, so you would be limiting your resale potential more with the nicer car. Heck, you could sell the cammer (I got the impression that you have one), buy a ready-to-run Street Beasts or FFR and maybe even have money left over to fix it the way you want
.
Or you could just do it right in the first place and build one of David's cars with the period correct interior... then not have to worry much if you ever have to sell it.
Again, not trying to be nasty. You asked for opinions... good luck with it whichever way you decide to go. Enjoy it!
