That intake means business. The Super Snakes have a slightly more boring looking intake, but only because the supercharger steals the show.
Do you know some of the tricks to telling apart the real Cobras?

I go with, “Hey, nice kit car.”
Ha!
All kidding aside, my eighth grade shop/homeroom teacher drove a reproduction car, 427 with a bunch of original bits tacked on (but not the Shelby plate) and he’d bring it to class on sunny summer days. Favorite person in the whole damn school, that guy.
His DD was a 5.0L swapped Volvo.

Memorize all of the little details. VIN (CSX2000 for small block cars, CSX3000 for big block cars, any other CSX number is a Superformance replica), Taillights (what style goes with what variant), body shape, engine details (the big shroud around the carb), gauge layout...
If it looks new, it probably is.

My grandfather’s friend has one at Lake Tahoe, has a 289 as well, bought one from Shelby, he owned the South Lake Tahoe dealership. I know on real ones, one fender is lower than the other. I doubt replicas have that.
