Trevor Legate and What'saCobra,

I would like to thank both of you (as well as others) for the amazing education I received as a result of taking the time to get through this thread. I learned more here than from any other single source I can remember. Sorry, Trevor, I haven't read your books yet, but I now know I need to acquire them.

I too grew up "brainwashed" by the SAAC, "Americanized view" of the Cobra. I was also amazed to learn of the later AC MK cars and their capabilities.

Now I'll just humbly get back to enjoying my completely fake, "boat-anchor FE-powered," glass-bodied, facsimile, which I do like very much, as it gives me great pleasure. It does proudly display an AC centercap on the steering wheel!

Thank you again, in all sincerity!
