What is the new model of AC Cobra called?
 
I read in a magazine about a new model of AC Cobra with a 12 litre engine that does 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds. I think it costs about £275000. Does anyone know the name of it or any websites that have photos?

I think you are referring to the Weineck Cobra. It is not a new model AC Cobra but a tricked-out modern day replica. Nothing at all to do with AC or Shelby. I don't care for the way it looks, but interesting specs all the same.

Some info and pics here: http://www.supercars.net/cars/3448.html

Perhaps he means the AC MkVI GTS?

That does not have a 12 liter engine though.

And with A.L.'s track record of delivering cars,... well don't expect it to ever see one on the road.

For some reason, the Weineck people turned their engine around so the distributor is in the back.

I heard somewhere they might be dyslexic, which is probably why they put the roll bar on the wrong side. When someone pointed out the mistake, they just went ahead and slapped one in behind the driver where it belongs.

Is that large object on the hood a scoop or a sculpture of Jimmy Durante's nose??? How do see where you are going? I guess they raised the seat so you can see over the windshield.

I was in talking to the local Ford dealer about the Mustang 'vert top (no problem) and talking about the Cobra and he mentioned this beast (the Weineck). Wow, what an animal.

Oh boy! 2 roll bars mandatory in that beast.
