I am new to the forum, and new to Cobra replicas (tho' I've drooled over the latter for years). OK -- decades.

I have come by what has been represented to me to be a factory five cobra replica, powered by a small block Ford. I have bought it, driven it and am free thus far of any buyer's remorse.

How's this for a noob question: How can I be assured that it is in Factory Five car? I have a Florida title to the car with what I believe to be a DMV-assigned "VIN". That's how Florida titles cars built from parts, kit cars, etc. Fla title and registration is all I have to identify the car.

My question at this point is this and only this: to what tell tale signs, if any, can I refer to determine this is in fact a Factory Five product?
