You tell me then we'll both know.

Just curious, are the new ACs real Cobras or just "replica" chaff? Please enlighten me.

Maybe after "Mikeinatlanta" cleans up his key board he can chime is on this little question.
Yes AC Cars LTD has changed owners, yes AC Cars LTD has not been in operation continuously since the 1960's, yes AC Cars LTD is not in the same location and probably uses no tooling from the 1960's, Yes AC Cars Ltd probably does not have a single person who worked for them in the 1960's working for them today, all true. But all that was just said can be said exactly the same about Shelby American, they started making replica's using a continuation of the CSX---- serial numbers, AC Cars LTD started making replica's with the COB---- and COX---- serial numbers. All of this should or will be in your precious Shelby bible. So are the current AC's like your name "Real-ONES" , are they the wheat or the chaff??? And since they are the real deal how does it sit with you , or how do you deal with Real AC's (COB- COX) coming from the factory (something Shelby American cannot do) with a GM LS engine??? And That AC Cars LTD in the 1960's sold from the factory at least two cars with GM engines???? How does that turn your Blue Oval only in a Cobra cream of wheat???
