Yes, these are AC built cars and the same cars are still available from AC Heritage at Brooklands in England as one of the licensed manufacturers of AC cars. Mr Legate will be able to confirm, but I suspect a Kirkham built by Hawk Cars would cost upwards of £100,000 ($160,000) in the UK - but still much cheaper than an AC continuation.

What I don't like is the dealer's misrepresentation of the originality of such cars - why can't they say up front that COX 5012 was a newly built car in the 2000s, not a '66? How can it have been rebuilt and refurbished?
