I had great times with 3327 as you did. No organized drags, but a few red light GP's and several trips to Watkins Glen. That machine left one with visceral feelings un obtainable today. I think it was the highlight of road cars I managed to enjoy if even briefly. Your other thoughts will be addressed in an PM.
Trevor,
As long as it is not Madolfs or A.L.'s accountant I'm OK with it. Note was stuffed into a book that i used for reference the other day.

On the Ebay car, you can see the front tower gusset was welded with a solid bead all the way around it. That's not the way AC did it in the 60's, they just put a few 2" or so long stitch welds on the tower. You can see an example of this in the photos of the car Canepa is restoring: http://www.canepa.com/racing/Cobra2/index.html

To make a ground-off chassis number visible is no big deal.
My local police station had it done in 1980 in "no time" to verify an engine number of my 50cc scooter

I am certain, that almost 30 years later you only need a "Mag-Lite" with another bulb to read that number - if you know what I mean :-)
