Speaking of the slabside 289, does anyone sell a glass version of the street slabside here in the States? Hawk makes a nice one, but apparently it's not available here.

I love the Kirkham, but way too much dough for my budget.

Also, I'll ask this question again. Does anyone recall the one-off AC prototype build back in the mid 60's on a 289 chassis? It predated the Frua 428 body and looked similar, but the nose was a lot simpler and cleaner.

There were a few pictures of it in Road and Track back when it first came out, and I spotted it again in a British classic car magazine advertisement back in the mid 90's.

Very pretty and elegant design which apparently never made it past the prototype stage.
