Thanks for the replies. The car would be just an occasional driver. I consider it a real AC made at Brooklands rather than Thames Ditton and a legitimate alloy factory built successor to the '60s car...similar but different but approved by Ford and AC... It certainly has as much right to attend the Cobra Family Reunion as a glass "Shelby" made in South Africa (Not that there's anything wrong with them, either). A bit of an "old man's Cobra" but then I'm an old man
I visited the Autokraft factory in the late '80s while living in London. We drove down to Brooklands in my friend's '61 Ace-Bristol.
