If Jim Price does not own AC then who does? Can you also explain why in my last visit to the AC factory in Frimley on 27th November 2002 the management and employees there believed that they were working for him?

I will not bother to re-enter the debate as to who can lay the greatest claim to being responsible for the original Cobra. I would suggest that people ask some of those who were originally involved in the project back in the 60's. You may be surprised by their answers!

This thread has also suggested (yet again) that AC would not have survived without Shelby. I would again point out that AC manufactured other products (including invalid vehicles and railcars) which were able to sustain their business with or without the Cobra. While I fully share the Cobra obsession that is the lifeblood of this website the Cobra was only produced by them for around 6 years of their 102 year history to date.
