Hello,
Great pictures of that project.
I would say it was never a "cobra" or and Ace but the chasis was from an AC Aceca ( the coupe). They have a different differential mounting from the Ace wich had the diff housing welded right into the chassis, the Aceca had a rubber mounted one more like the CSX / COB / COX series but the structure around it is somewhat different in the end. Here is the back of a 1955 Aceca.



Yours Looks like it was a better idea than the pictures of a T bucket hot rod built on a 289 chassis that I saw once

You know that guy,
The one in the neighborhood who likes to hang around the garage while you are working and talk about back when he had that killer 1977 Chevy Mustang
