Sheila and I just returned from the UK and we had an opportunity to visit the Haynes Motor Museum. The Museum has about 350 vintage cars in the collection, and right in the middle of the 'red cars' were an AC Ace Bristol and a very early AC Cobra side by side. I took some detail photos of the dash panels, as well as front and rear and badge shots...all attached. The beige interior is the Ace.

E-mail me back channel (wolfpack68@rocketmail.com) for higher resolution photos.

Cheers,
Mike Thompson

Mike,

Great photos! I love the early cars, will send an email for higher res photos. Is the same Haynes that publishes automotive service manuals?

Thanks.

Hmm, and some people complain about front license plates on this side of the pond...

It is the same outfit as the Haynes Manuals. The owners pet project...and a very serious collection. Had a Jag XJ220...one I've never even heard of.

Cheers,
Mike
