Yes, it would be a nice project for someone. I don't know if I should change the ad to 1958 because the old registration says it's a 1959, don't want to confuse anyone.
   
   We are considering getting the owner to do some type of restoration.
   We had a quote on the paint and they want $20k for total strip down and paint. Don't know if the owner will want to fork out $50k or so for a Restoration. He may just want to find an AC Lover who wants to do that themselves. We are still trying to evaluate the car, like Jay said "it's tricky".

We are a consignment dealership and plan on finding a happy owner that loves the beauty and history of the car. The seller is getting rid of a collection of cars he has and this is one of them.
   Yes, it is very tricky trying to evaluate the car. I do have more pictures I will upload on the forum.
   Thanks for all the help![]

Hi Guys,
   
   I want to thank everyone for all the help. You guys are great.
   
   Yes those are the pictures of the car we have.
   I did find #457 on the trunk hinge. So if it's an AEX 457 then
   it should have a 6 cylinder in it, is that correct?
   How bad does it devalue the car if the engine has been swapped out?
   
   Once again, Thanks everyone.

We just got a 1959 AC Bristol Cobra. Well that is what the owner called it. We don't know if that's correct and have been researching for days to find out if it's all original. It has a V8 ford engine in it. Don't think that's the original engine. Need some help identifying, there are no id numbers anywhere. Any resources for parts and information/feedback would be great. We are in CA. I have a bunch of pictures if anyone wants to help. Thanks
