Correct, my assumption is that it isa BA 6000 series car. There appears to be at least one built according to a highly respected UK author. If it were an AC COB CEX 6000 it would be worth incredibly ( this may be an incorreect use of an adverb)significantly more. There are a couple of serious questions about this car though...the splined hubs & this would be the first . There appears to be a strange mix; to my eye and the darken pictures ; of a custom MKIV and possibly a AKL or perhaps a289 sport. It is the first AC/Shelby/AutoKraft that I've heard of with some sort of vin plate apparently riveted to the top of a front upright...neither are impossibilities...but? What wheels (spline drive ) came with the coiler 289 sports?

One thing for sure, without papers, even with an AK number; unless someone ground them all off; this is not lisencable in the states. A stay away unless you can buy it real cheap or need an alloy parts car desperately.

BTW Trevor, I just found a note to self, I owe you $20 USD pm your address again. Jim
