I only have the VIN ending in "085". Would that indicate AK1085?

As for modifications, value and collectability, I've owned around 130 cars in my lifetime and have learned that stock and original is best for resale. Then there are no explanations necessary to prospective buyers. I also learned a long time ago that you make money on cars on the buy not the sell...

As to the collectability of the MK IV, all I can say is I could have bought a similar MK IV(s), 5 years ago for a lot less money. I was going to buy another Ferrari or SPF MK II with 300 bhp and a glass body instead I bought this 200 bhp alloy bodied car with a more direct connection with AC (perhaps being a former Ace-Bristol owner influenced that decision).

Having said all that a stainless dual exhaust with headers, a set of aluminum heads and a Holley Sniper EFI system would go nicely on this AC!
