Neat car but at almost Cobra price?
I agree no longer Ace
Not a Cobra
It’s a rodded Ace with MG front end. My feeling value in the KMS catagory maybe slightly higher or thereabouts.
Think the rebody is nice, agree details were little cobbled together
Wonder what underside looks like.
My neighbor has four Ace’s and they are vastly lighter duty.
Also, outboard brakes on an Ace which by the way is not a cost saver when going outboard

For a guy like me a perfect car. For investment dunno
Cannot be a concours car
Cannot be in either Ace or Cobra class show
Can be easily registered as it’s still Ace
Guessing really fun....
Can be in a casual show with replicas

I like it, but I would change s few details without a doubt
6 years ago $80k
Now $550k phew

Somewhat remember this car in Ace body red selling for 42k circa 1998 or so ??
Have a picture in the barn, will go look
