Alright, it looks like I found the best looking Cobra kit that I can get. Although, I would definitely add the hood scoop. This is the Cobra I'd buy. Any thoughts about Kirkham?

Pictures didn't show up but the do show as invalid links in the reply.   A Kirkham aluminum bodied car will run you $80K+, less with you engine but still in the 60-70K range. And that is assuming you want the maintenance of the "bare naked lady".  Paint will be extra.

Kirkham manufactures the aluminum rollers for the CSX4000/CSX6000 series cars.  They are different bodies and frames and contain no interchangeable parts.

The pictures worked yesterday. I will attempt to remedy it. I just loved the way the Kirkham bodies looked.

Kirkham's are finished rollers - ready for engine and trans but otherwise finished, wired, etc..  Not a kit.

You can get a really good idea of the current Cobra market at www.cobracountry.com.
