For those of you on the forum that doubt me and my recollections, I offer this up to you now.

I have always just stated what it was that I recalled or found, as for the frame pieces that ended up in my mom's garage that I found when I cleared her property after her death as the executor of her estate here is the latest.

I wanted to get very specific information regarding the frame pieces in my possession and have been somewhat tight lipped about them because I was awaiting a definitive answer from AC Cars in England. I sent them the photos and asked if they would examine them and give me any information regarding the frame.

They responded this very day...

Hello Mr. Heineke

Thanks for the images.

That is an AC chassis, probably from an AC Aceca circa 1955-1961

It looks like the identification plate has been removed, if that was available we could provide more details

Yours sincerely

AC Cars

I am open and forth-coming unlike some. Now I know for sure what it is, the good the bad and the ugly. As for why it was in my mom's garage, I have no idea. Possibly a gentle gesture of respect that went wrong. The details died with my mom.

So now we have a bit cleaner picture of the history of CSX2049.
