Well I hope it works for A.C. Interesting that the sales brochure claims that this is their first electric car - there was an electric version of the invalid carriage and, stretching a point, the few Cobra chassis built for electric power and supplied to a U.S. company in the sixties. maybe there were other electric projects before the wars ? Perhaps our Archivist knows ?
Surprising though the electric Cobra notion is I find it quite attractive - a silent run out in the countryside, the breakfast meeting - all the usual interesting car club stuff: Just so long as it is within a 75 mile radius......

...read similar posts in other parts of the forum, and the Swedish press, all a bit low key.

But a glimmer of light I found was a reference to this company https://falconelectric.co.uk/ev-conversions/
and another reference to a group in Canada that have done an electric power-train version back in 2017:

If I had the finances I'd like to do an" e-type zero" type conversion to my Brookland Ace.
Plus a good sound system for the "correct" sound; one can always adjust the volume depending on the venue!

Godforbid the notion ever takes root; for a silent run out in the countryside, suggest dusting off the trainers and doing the post breakfast trip from Fennel to Manse on foot, will do wonders for the environment and the waistline;)

Paho, Falcon Electric Ltd will be carrying out the electrical installation on the new Cobra electric. Full details in the August ACtion. I'm sure they would interested in converting your Brooklands Ace.
