ps: regarding reference sources, which book is considered most factual?

Bear in mind that all but a small percentage of 427 Cobras have not had a hard existence, never been raced, never wrecked, never customized, never been through a used car lot's clean up shop, and never "restored". Most have most definitely been messed with one way or another. That makes most of them poor examples of "originality". (Most Cobras likewise.) The low mile original in most every way cars rarely get out anywhere anybody can photograph them causually.
I have purchased the most interesting (to me) books printed in the last four decades dealing with Cobras and 427 Cobras and most do not have much information to gain for all but big details.
427 Cobras have lots of suttle production changes over time just as Cobras did. Comparing cars made in different batches will just confuse issues. To get a good idea of how a batch was made you might have to examine several cars and see what has been owner changed and what has not.
