1. I wouldn’t count on SPF and KIrkham parts being interchangeable

2. David is extremely busy and backlogged. Not inclined at this point to assist in chasing down random parts. But, you can always ask.

CSX4000/CSX6000 are different from SPF Cobras.

CSX4000/CSX6000 Cobras (unlike SPF) are supposed to have frame suspension parts that are interchangable with original CSX3000 Cobras from the 1960s. Likewise Kirkham frames and suspension parts are also supposed to be interchangable with original Cobras. Original Cobra owners buy parts from Kirkham to install on their original 1960s CSX2000/CSX3000 Cobras.

So I would think that Kirkham parts "should" work on CSX4000/CSX6000 cars.

Sorry to disagree, but the CSX4000 and up series cars, some sourced from Kirkham (aluminum body rollers), all share the same pick up and mounting points. Thus, making Kirkham the next place for the OP to call. Yes, David is busy, but he has an excellent office and warehouse staff that I am certain can assist the OP in his quest for the sourcing of replacement parts.
