Thx
Hi Tech has the capacity to do aluminum in house. In fact, they produced the second generation AC Ace "Brooklands" bodies in aluminum with stainless monocoque chassis. Th Superformance dealers at the time did not feel that the alloy body was in demand with Kirkham, etc. offering the aluminum. It only complicated the inventory and so it is no longer offerd on the MK III roadster.
