'On offer is a huge part of racing history! An original 1964 AC Cobra, 289 USRRC race car. This has been owned by my client for nearly « 40 » years. Authentic and ready! Raced at all of the amazing USA tracks as you would expect!...........'

This was sold as a road car in 1980 with 'chrome wires, front end damage, new body panels included' and then 427ised for vintage racing. As the USRRC only ran from 1963 to 1968, its exclamatory description would appear to miss the mark.

Would the value be more as a road car ?

Aaron,

What's the value of a 427ised leaf spring 'USRRC' non-USRRC Cobra? Most would say less than the value of an unmodified leaf spring Cobra, but there's no accounting for individual tastes and perceived values.
