Hi Chuck. 39PH was the AC Cars entry at Le Mans in 1963, where it finished 7th, then went on to be one of the most famous racing Cobras outside of America. This is the Magazine:
Ah! Very cool, I'll be on the outlook! Thanks for the heads-up gents!

This is actually my car you are talking about. It is 100% not a fake car. It was built by Brian Angliss and Richard Buxbaum in November of 1977. It is not and was never presented as being a Shelby car. When we got the car, it had a CSX vin plate in it but it was removed and the other vin plate was installed. It is for a Ford Cobra but that is the title the car currently has along with it. The car does not have an AC title or vin plate in it. If you have any doubts, feel free to come and inspect the car. We have nothing to hide. It was also previously owned by Bill Jacobs and Dana Mecum

From what I can see that definatly look s like an AC vin plate

Still my exhaustive research confirms that you cannot run a Cobra on fresh air alone...
And well done for arranging the sunshine.
Trevor ,we call a computerizator a computer in the UK .... [

John.
John ,you say you are 10 mins from the old AC factory in Frimley,so am I were abouts are you ?
