What`s not to like? It IS a beautiful car, and as long as no-one tries to make out it`s one of the originals, there`s no real problem.

Agreed. But it's the cynical use of an AC chassis plate and the description of the car as the 38th AC Ace 2.6 to extract probably an extra £50k over what the car would sell for if it had been described as a Monk replica that gets up my nose. £117k!

EFFECTIVELY number 38*, Old chap! [;)][:0]
   
   Although Gus should have first dibs on that as his was (mostly) built by AC (Cars, Group, Automotive, Ltd etcetera etcetera) !
   
   
   
   *According to the Nostalgia description, can`t tell you what the Shrewsbury website says as they`ve run out of bandwidth...[:o)]

Splitting  hairs Gus's car RS 5038 is number 39 [;)] I believe there is also a RS5037 lurking somewhere but Gus will no doubt confirm [:D]!
