original car. The body and paintwork is flawless with perfect Hood,
Door and Trunk fit. The Paintwork is buffed to a high gloss.

interior holds true to the original car with period correct bucket
seats, forward leaning shifter, leather covered dash and
traditional dash gauge layout. Chrome Backdraft Gauges are
standard. Multi Point Safety Harnesses are standard for Driver and

to comfortable fit in a Cobra. The Big and Tall option allows
