What happened to calling it an AC cobra?

[DMXF]

While anyone can choose the name they wish to use for the cars based on their own desires, the official, real designation is what is shown on the Manufacturers Certificate or Statement of Origin. Ned, don't all 427 cars and most 289 cars (sold by Shelby American) show Shelby American as the official manufacturer of record? While AC had substantial input on the design and manufactured the bulk of the cars composition, they were nonetheless simply subcontractors for Shelby. An analogy would be computer components or appliances - a Dell computer or Kenmore washer may have had the entire machine made by another company, but they are still legally Dell and Kenmore products. In fact, everything you buy from Sears is made by other outfits, including all lawn equipment, but they are still Sears tractors, etc.
