Gentlemen, what you are looking at here is an AutoKraft; who purchased AC Cars (with FoMoCo) in 1986; vehicle. It is more of a true continuation vehicle than the Shelby's as it came from the same craftsmen that originally did the frames and bodies and actually from many of the jigs and bucks originally used. Brian Anglis (AutoKraft) had the right to the name "Cobra" everywhere in world except the US...So this car is an AC Cobra. It is NOT a Shelby. Some of the items are MKIV ie the rear fender flare and creases, yet many of the MKIV's refinements were replaced with the origal 427 components; ie the aluminum inner fenders etc. But as AutoKraft owned/was AC Cars in 1986, he built a few of the 427 cars before going into receivorship in "99 or 2000. The fit and finish of the AutoKraft cars was generally better than the earlier AC factory vehicles. The history of the company is avail on the ACOC website or via fine tome' by Trevor Legate "COBRA". Most had COX or COB XXXX serials however..one meant export and the other was Great Britain consumption.Jbo
