1985 ak 1069
I am evaluating the purchase of Autokraft 1069 located in Jax, FL and am wondering if anyone has any historical info on this particular vehicle.
It is in seemingly great condition, blk w/blk interior but with no history or records. I noticed that the throttle is connected to the carb linkage via a cable. Is this standard on AKs? Pedal travel was excessive and I was wondering if this was a common problem and if there was a direct linkage replacement fix out there. I've had many old Fords, Tigers and such but this would be my first "Cobra". Thanks to all. clgennone@cfl.rr.com www.vintageautosportllc.com |
Here's what a little google search turned up:
SA9AK3025FA017069 AKA AK1069 Decoder: SA9 = British Standard AK = Manufacturer - Autokraft 302 = Engine size 5 = Check sum number F = Model Year (1985) (G = 1986, H = 1987, J = 1988 K = 1989, L = 1990, M = 1991 N = 1992 P = 1993). A = Plant A or B 017 = British Standard 069 = Chassis production number since 1985 (Cars not necessarily produced in numerical order). A Hemmings ad from October 2008: http://www.hemmingsdigital.com/hemmings/200810/?pg=290 Car was originally painted white? http://www.acownersclub.com/forum/to...erms=ak%2C1069 This poster “Mark IV” sold 1069 new: http://www.acownersclub.com/forum/to...hTerms=ak,1069 Previously sold for $61,000 in July 2007: http://www.acownersclub.com/forum/to...hTerms=ak,1069 Good luck. |
Did you guys read that Hemmings ad? That gave me a sort of seafood smell all the way over here........

Just not all that impressed with the AC cars from the 1980's
- in most cases you are bound by emissions , and the parts are a mishmash of 1980s UK stuff (harder to find than 1960s stuff) the cars diverge significantly from the CSX and KMP platforms. Unless its under 70K -- its a skip. |
Yes,
The AK cars had a cable system for the throttle. And, yes, I sold it new. |
