Ace 4.6,
   I don't kmow the answer but what color is your car and when did you purchase it? I have several photos of Brooklands Aces under construction in 1999 and wonder if your is one of them.

It is a Burgundy Lubinsky car - I think it is the last one ever made. It is the only car left with a 4.6 32 valve engine. Nice car - actually much nicer than I ever expected it to be. If anyone can tell me how to post photos I will put one up on the site

Hi Keith,
   
   Specialised Car Covers, West Yorkshire Tel: 01943 864646 made the cover for my Brooklands Ace.
   
   Although they assured me they had a template for the Brooklands it didn't come out a perfect fit. In fairness, they offered to alter it if I sent it back with photos showing where it was tight/loose. But it does the job, so didn't bother in the end.
   
   Quote "The Webflex-TLP cover is made from a special membrane that protects your car from rain, dirt and abrasion, as well as overnight dampness, due to special micropores that breathe, enabling water vapour to escape."

Ace 4.6,
   Who did you deal with at AC? Was it Jim Hogan?
   I don't think I have a picture of a burgandy car, however I do have pictures of body/chassis units in double deck shipping frames from Hi-Tech in South Africa and it may be one of those.

I have only had my car for a couple of years. I bought it from Neil Fisher of RedLine, who co-incidentally was working at AC Brooklands when I bought my MkIV.
