Who is Period Correct?
My passion began many years ago – a college kid in Southern Illinois, seeing a Cobra in a Ford dealership – and it became focused years later when I started my Hurricane big block replica build. Wanting to pursue as accurate a reproduction as possible, I found that many of the components were no longer available – or so pricey no one could afford them.
A lifelong gear-head, I combined my skills and training in art, engineering and marketing to research and develop the items I needed for my build. Many asked if I would supply pieces to them, thereby starting “Period Correct, LLC”, a company to supply affordable period correct components for the replica Cobra market – Shelby Cobra replica parts and accessories.
Our products can be found on many replicas around the country, and to my pleasure, on a number of notable original CSX cars. Oh, and my Hurricane builds? Build I has found a new home in Louisville, KY, and Build II is out on the road, looking for the next adventure. Build III is a new, period-correct GT40.
In September of 2025, we were acquired by Acton Custom who will be adding our products to their catalog. The move is underway and I am now chasing my dream, full-time.

Things haven’t changed: the hardest part of building these is picking a color combination. This choice of Saleen ‘Lizstick Red’ is very eye-catching.
