Dayum, I would've been more than happy with the original pics Carb posted, but these "revisions" are killer!!!! ...But in all seriousness that's one beautiful car. Glad to see things are going so awesome for ya in Hotlanta for ya Carb!! Hopefully by the end of summer I'll be there visiting some friends.
This is where the AC Ace came from. I believe (note I said I believe, so not fact ) that Mr Ken(?) Tojeiro was consulted by AC to design the AC Ace's chassis, etc. ... as we all know Shelby then stuck a Ford v8 in one and the Cobra was born. Note the resemblance to a Ferrari 166 barchetta, especially around the lights ... not knocking that at all as influences happen, and this is why I say the Ferrari 166 barchetta inspired the Corba styling to some minor degree. Pete's ramblings
NNO, thanks a lot buddy!!!!! The story is "nice" but the pic - just to die for!!!!! I have just replaced our gate sign: "Beware of the Dog" with this one..... LOL & please forgive me
Jeff - LMAO...! C'mon, though... everyone knows that "Real" Ferrari don't have alloy wheels - they have wire wheels...! Dave, thanks...! i can't wait to get it...! ...but, um... where'd you mail it...? Johnny B., if you're in the neighborhood, let me know... Would love to meet you... Pete, you sure know your stuff... Everything you said is correct... Very nice... Wax, howzabout you wait 'til Sunday and i'll give you the REAL scoop... ...'cause i'll be riding in it on Sunday to a car event...!!!

Wolfgang, LMAO...! i hear you had an awesome time in NY; i wish i could've been there... Maybe another time...
Carbon, Glad you got the goggles! DO NOT use a scarf....they fell from vogue after a few long ones got caught in wheels, sprockets, fan belts, airplane props.... Maybe go with a Mike Hawthorn bow tie, or ascot...pip pip cheerio!! Speedy308 knows where his number plates are!!!!
Carb, Use an old 50's crash hat like in MM, put beer rack on it...You're golden! Sorry for lousy paste...Graphics guy I'm not. Lee Image Unavailable, Please Login
