Remember that the original AC was not called a Cobra - it was the AC Ace. An original Ace was at a local car show last weekend. Everyone asked him if it was a Cobra kit.

But to the general resurgance of this subject, it has gone beyond vampires. It's full fledged Zombies. No matter what you can't kill them. They, just like this subject, will rise from the grave for time immemorial. To which the same people will make the same circular arguments.

Going back to the question in the OP, as an Ace owner it irritates me to get ask all the time if my car is a real Cobra. Sheesh they built over 1000 real Cobras and only 600+ real Aces so I would like to get some Ace respect instead of being lumped in with all of those CSX cars built in Los Angeles.
