Well I do have an opinion on this one. Still a large portion of the Pro Mod and Top Sportsman cars are 63 split windows. Its something that in 2021 you can go 220 mph in a 1963 body style. They got it right. Granted they are aftermarket stretched, widened bodies and chassis but still 80% correct to the original body. With that being said I did destroy a nice 63 roadster at the Atlanta NHRA divisional. Not much left of that car. Pic attached for your viewing pleasure......

Wow, I hate to see that!

That totally sucks. Such a nice race car. I cringed when I saw your post/pictures. Im sure we all can agree, Cobra's and 'Vette's are some of the most beautiful and beloved cars ever made!

Absolutely!

63 split window is my pic. Love the Corvette. Always wanted a mid year. Best Corvette body style in my opinion.

WOW, that came out of nowhere! lol. Yes, the Cheetah was very fast. However, very ill handling, and some would say 'dangerous'.

You just described Marilyn Munroe. She was all those things and pretty good looking. Back to the original question I choose the Corvette because few would know if you have a real Cobra.

More like Courtney Love! LOL
Only the untrained eye cant see if they are a replica. 'I' can spot a fake a mile away...
That said, IF I was mega-rich, my collection would include Corvettes, Cobras and GT-40s. (and a host of Muscle Cars!). One can dream...
