61ace, that is very sad. AEX chassis plate is an AC engined Ace exported. $10K for the title and some body parts is OK, but as stated any restore will cost a small fortune. I have just finished an Aceca restore and just half way through my Ac Bristol restore. It is basically like buying another house.

Would have been the buy of the year at $1500, $10K ok (but getting high), anything over $15k would be getting hard to swallow.

Changing the subject if anyone wants to know about Ac Bristol history, give me a shout I have spent an age sorting out the history on my car and have some great sources of information.

Shame someone told Lynn and then told the owner [again not me], looking at some of the chassis rails in one the pictures, not sure that the chassis is fully original and this would be the important point.

Anyway, lets hope it goes to a good home and does not turn up as a 1959? Cobra at some stupid price!
