Looks like you can just take a jigsaw to the body & it'll be pretty damn close....

Bruce wasn't that car redone by these pics, no?
2345 is the best example short of vintage pics.

This is not a car set up for FIA races but it was the only one I saw on The Henry Ford site that posts the original factory images with an oil cooler scoop on a race Cobra. There are several 427 Cobra scoop images in the collection. The spherical bearing on the front stabilizer bar end link and the stainless steel oil cooler hose covers makes me think this is an early image of CSX2431.

I agree with Jeff and consider vintage photos of 2323 & 2345 at the start of (or at least during) Targa Florio 64' to be the best reference. Mainly because they were the last two "FIA" cars purpose built by AC (including "dimples" btw-) and hadn't been previously raced.
