Oh, how I do like this.

One Brit (myself) comes along and tries to restore the AC/Shelby balance, and many Americans descend on me to inform me that AC was some fleapit hole-in-the-wall subbie hardly worth mentioning, with some old car design destined for historical extinction until some proper mechanics (US, naturally) sorted it out!
Never mind what is in the various books on the subject of it's prior race success for all to see.

Couple of other Brits, plus some lucky chap from Fl with a barn full of the things and a good memory (Sorry What'saCobra, I am sure you worked long and hard for everything you have, but allow me a little artistic licence if you would?) and all of a sudden, history is re-written.

As I said - I love it.
