The MkIV kits from Factory Five Racing, or the Autokraft MkIV ? Big difference.

To say the truth....I am not sure. I haven't been in this scene ever and don't know jack shyt about them. Yet.

Welcome to the Madness. Look for your local Cobra Club. Those guys will be a great help before and during your build.

Buy an AC MKIV. Aluminum body on a tube frame built in England.

With the GM Chevy motor. The best of both worlds, genuine AC(if there is such a thing now) with a Chevy motor

The OP is a newbie just starting his homework and you guys are suggesting purchasing a new AC from England?

Do yourself a favor and just put it all on hold for at least until the end of the year while you do your homework and see if you're just in the middle of a passing fancy. You could be making a huge mistake buying one of these cars. They're really not for everybody, in fact, they're really not for almost anybody.
