H'buff, the car that AC tested in the UK with the 221 cubic inch engine was CSX 2000. They used an existing engine to set up the mounts for it, the transmission, etc. After testing, they removed the engine and shipped the car as the prototype to Shelby in L.A. where the new 260 cubic inch engine was installed in Dean Moon's shop.
Franklin, a well-known Australian named Peter Brock was killed a year or so ago in a road accident and it was widely assumed it was the Cobra-related writer/ photojournalist that was killed. As the car he was driving was a new Daytona Coupe, this was an easy mistake. Thankfully, as we all know, such was not the case.
