[Merv and Sharon]

The car was marketed in the UK as the AC Cobra and in the US as a Ford Cobra and Shelby Cobra. The world championship won was a Ford Cobra, I understand. Also, the cars were initially sold in the US through Ford dealerships. However that said, current Australian emission and compliance rules mean that the easiest new motor to fit is the Holden one. I agonised over that choice for a long time (earlier thread) and the heart won over the head, I'm afraid. What ever makes you happy!
