[QUOTE="Robert M, post: 1830855, member: 9628"] I would never tell anyone what they should add or not add to their car. All I can say, is the history/record of what is good and what is not so good in the collector/specialty car pricing has already been set. Odd/non-factory holes, or welded-up and paint touched-up holes, weld distorted metal and or ground-off and touched-up areas stick out like a sore thumb to the "people in the know". Lets face it, the mods that work on these cars are very common and known by all who have interest in these cars. These common areas that usually show if a car was modded or not will be looked at before anything else. The people who know these cars will know where to look. As for how much it could hurt value, only time will tell, but with very small numbers of these cars produced in the first place, and some already distroyed by accidents etc., the nice original cars will be the most sought after and bring the big money. If you are not in it for the long haul, it is not such a big deal, but when I see people, even now looking for a Cobra, they are looking for minimal or no mods and a low number of miles and owners. These cars, even now bring very good money in comparision to other "same year Cobra's". Robert [/QUOTE]
