I read the posts from '07 and figure that prices should be down in current market. One more thing thoughts/info on the Aurora's compared to AK's
P.S Anyone seen a AK hood ornament/steeringwheel medallion like ac but ak or did I imagine this?

The AC MkIV`s were all badged as 'AC' & 'Autokraft', but what you may have seen is the badging of a UK based replica, made by AK Sporstcars, like this:

MK IV prices are not off but have been climbing slowly but steadily as people realize the value these represent. An alloy, genuine AC built to a very high standard. Not 427 S/C stupid fast but quick and superb handling.

Oh, and I have one for sale....................

Default AC MKIV production numbers

Per the AC owner's club registry the total number of MKIV's is 386 not including the lightweigh version. There is a very nice Aurora on Ebay.

Default Autokraft/Aurora

The Aurora in a very nice non-kit cobra car. The Autokraft is a production car build in England based on the AC MKIII/427 and is registered with ACOC and SCCA. The AC emblem is on Autokraft. the AK emblem is on something else.
