Hi all,
Thanks for taking the time to read this..
From 1989 through 1996 I owned a company in the Cleveland, Ohio area named A.C. Exotic cars. My brother Dan and I sold, built and delivered 56 kits, rolling chassis, and full cars and trucks for clients. We started with West Coast Cobras (Vern) and moved onto become the #1 Contemporary Cobra dealer for our last six years in business.
We built several cars for our demo fleet and want some of them back if possible. I closed the company to concentrate on growing my other business and family. My brother Dan left the business to become a very successful crew chief at McCann racing.
Now I’m ready to re-enter the Cobra family and would like to find my last personal car to purchase back. It was Contemporary Chassis # CCX33913 and a yellow car with a #15 on the hood and trunk and the build was featured in four issues of Kit Car Illustrated. This is a unique car with a dry sump
oil system and the best of everything in the day. I miss the car and would like it back if possible.
Additionally, we built two #14 cars. One Yellow w/black stripes; and one Black w/yellow stripes. I believe the Black / yellow car may be for sale by a “Mr. Canton Johnson” in Canton Ohio (very close to home). I would also like to buy this car for my brother, even if I can locate and buy #15. I could build a new car; however, there is something special about getting one or two of our old cars back.
We also built a car for actor Lorenzo Lamas that was Black with burgundy stripes, fuel cell and Richmond 5+1 OD trans. I would be interested in this car also.
Can you offer any suggestions on how I might locate the car(s) and / or use the forum to help locate them? Do you or someone know Mr. Canton Johnson, his contact info appears not to work?
I can offer your members deep insight into the Contemporary Cobra and have many used and take off parts still in inventory for these cars. I also have sales literature, and all of the original order sheets and invoices for each vehicle’s build (I never throw away anything).
All of our cars had a A.C. Exotic data-plate riveted under the hood. I’m looking to for any help in locating the cars (#14 yellow, #14 black, #15 and Lorenzo’s). I’m sure your members know where many of these cars are. I can be reached at 440-667-3278 anytime or at

Thanks for your help.
