Yup, definitely a Kirkham, with a Le Mans style hardtop. Polished Aluminium, but the stripes are masked off before buffing to that full shine! Check out Brent Mills of Clubcobra.com`s ride.

It's polished aluminum. Kirkham motorsports makes cobra replica's with real aluminum bodies in an old Mig Factory in poland.

Is it actually plated, or is it chrome-effect paint? Big difference!

There was an article in last month's Product Finishing magazine about how far chrome plating/painting has come on plastic parts.

Any Cobra is awesome, I'd say. Its really, really hard to mess up an AC Cobra. So far, I haven't seen one that made me say "OMFG, what have they done!?"

What plastic parts are on a Cobra?
Since it's a replica, I imagine they are showing off the fact that its not fiberglass.
