AC is an important part of the original Cobra equation. No doubt. Their role, however, was in a way much more fortuitous than Shelby's. They were in the right place, at the right time with a body and chasis looking for a second wind. They had the base for what Shelby needed. Shelby proactively built on that and improved it and made it a legend.
There is no doubt the AC Ace had beautiful lines though. Clearly, without AC there would be no Cobra, at least how we know it presently.
I am not trying to demean or denegrate AC's role. I just looking at history from a factual perspective.
If a TR Ferrari was made with all Ferrari parts including Ferrari chasis, yeah I think it would qualify as a real Ferrari with a re-body.
I love you guys! What a scream!
BTW: I was told that a perfect example of a GT500 would probably sell for $100,000.00 by a mustang "expert" at a cruise night a few weeks ago. Is this accurate? What would a GT350R sell for? Just asking.
BTW part 2: Allen, I grew up in Great Falls. Went to Langley H.S. routinely beat McLean H.S. in football. Go Saxons!
