Venom S,
I found the following information:
1985 - The updated 5.0 litre AC MKIV is re-introduced into North America, using the original tooling and meeting 50 State EPA and DOT Federal Regulations.
1986 - After some 56 years of ownership, the Hurlock family sell their controlling interest in AC Cars to the joint ownership of Autokraft Limited and the Ford Motor Company.
