Many thanks gents, wise advice and I have now shifted my focus to trying to find a RHD MKIV Lightweight. Hens teeth apparently... so if anyone should know of one, please get in touch.

Many thanks.

Fantastic work and sounds / looks great.  What are the detailed spec of the engine and trans?  Who supplied?

Well done and all the best.

Is there a chronological list of all the AKL cars by build date?  What ever the “number” of cars, it would be handy to know where they all sit.

Hi,

I'm a club member looking for a MKIV Lightweight.  I missed one at Silverstone earlier in the year and am still on the look out. If anyone knows of a car that may be for sale I'd really appreciate a steer.  clivej.austin@gmail.com / 07803 797 135

Many thanks in advance for any help you are able to provide.

Best regards

Has there been any update in respect of this issue?  I am wondering if it has an impact on the MKIII Continuation cars.

Mk IV, Superblower, CRS and other Continuation Cars Forum / Continuation MKIII 427 manufactured at Brooklands

« on: April 26, 2019, 07:32:30 »

I am a new member looking for a Cobra and am in discussion with a reputable dealer about a "Continuation MKIII 427 manufactured at Brooklands", I think in the late 80's.  It has a COB chassis number from a small batch of unused numbers dating back to the Thames Ditton days and is fitted with a period correct side oiler engine. I don't yet have the chassis number.  I appreciate it's not an "original 60's" car but it feels somewhere in between that and a MKIV Lightweight.  However, I'm struggling to find any definitive history on these variants.  I'd really appreciate any shared knowledge or pointers as to where I might find some.  Partly out of a desire to double check the history of the car, but mainly because I am in the process of immersing myself in "all things Cobra" and this is a frustrating blind spot for me. I am unsure whether it is best to post here or in the MKIV area so have done both - please excuse the duplication.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Best regards.
