Wanted... Ac Ace and Cobra
I am looking for the book Original Ac Ace and Cobra, by Rinsey Mills.
I have been watching eBay and scouring the internet for quite a while with no luck.
Does anyone have a copy that they would like to sell???
Thanks for the help.
-John

Hi John,
I have a copy that I plan to keep, but the next time I am at a local bookstore, I will check to see if they have a copy.

I might be able to help as I know someone who has a spare copy. He might be persuaded to part with it, but it will have to be posted from the UK. Do you have limit regarding price...??

That book is on Ebay right now--it's been there in several auctions for the last week or so...I think. Does it have a yellow cover?

Sssnot,
are you sure we are talking of the same book... list the item number if you can.
Rinsey Mills has written several Cobra books and this is different than the more common, AC Cobra, The Truth Behind the Anglo-American Legend.
There is also a technical articles collection that pops up quite often, usually from GB, that is titled Ac Ace and Cobra. It has a different author.
The Mills text is pretty complete restorer's guide with many pictures and subtle points of the original Cobras.
I will try to track down a picture of the cover.
Thanks for thinking of me, though.
-John

THe book on ebay with the yellow cover isn`t the Rinsey Mills book,its a book of photocopies of articles from various magazines,the Rinsey Mills book is very collectable,so be prepared to pay reasonable money for it,up to £45.00

Thanks to all, mission accomplished!
Here in a week or two you will find the boys in bed and my wife and I settling in for the night. Her, with her Law & Order and some catalog and me with my 'new' Cobra book and a grin...

Doh! Too late. I was just about to offer you my spare signed copy for $20.00 including shipping!
Hehehe...Not.  Well done on your acquisition, it`s a very useful book.
For reference, here`s the cover:
