Hi, I am new to the forum. I found it when I was trying to find info on AC to change a part of my logbook. Anyway I contacted a couple of guys from here and they were very helpful, the last one pointed me towards the forum to post up info on my little AC.
Most will remember these cars from the 70's and 80's as disabled people's cars, most memories are of them round football pitches.
My car is a 1975 AC Invacar with a 500cc Steyr-Puch 4/ 2 cylinder engine in the back, AC variable transmission.
I had been looking for one for some years and finally got this one in October last year. The paint was shocking so decided to restore that, taking the paint off opened a can of worms and ended up rebuilding the front and rear bumpers as well as sorting out hundreds of spider leg cracks that were all over every panel.
The car starts and drives and is fully road legal withMOT, Tax and insurance.
I hope you enjoy seeing one again.
