1964 FACTORY BUILT AC COBRA MK IV LEFT HAND DRIVE

MR. STEVE HITCHINS COMMISSIONED THIS CONTINUATION CAR FROM AUTOKRAFT ( BRIAN ANGLISS ) - AC CAR FACTORY .  MR. STEVE HITCHINS COMMISSIONED 2 UNITS TO BE MANUFACTURED FOR HIMSELF WITH THE CORRECT RARE 7 LITRE SIDE OILER 427 ENGINE AND TOP LOADER GEARBOX FITTED AT THE AC FACTORY.  SEMI LIGHTWEIGHT SPECIFICATION BUT FITTED WITH THE COMPETITION BONNET AIR INTAKE.  APPROXIMATELY 10 WERE MANUFACTURED BY THE AC FACTORY WITH THE 7 LITRE ENGINE. THERE IS A COMPREHENSIVE HISTORY FILE THAT COMES WITH THE CAR AND A VAST AMOUNT OF EXPENDITURE ON THE CAR ITSELF WITH JD CLASSICS AND CLASSIC MOTOR COMPANY (CMC ) WHO CARRIED OUT A FULL ENGINE REBUILD WITH LESS THAN 1000 MILES SINCE AT OVER SIXTY THOUSAND POUNDS .  THERE ARE VARIOUS INVOICES / RECEIPTS DOCUMENTING ALL EXPENDITURE.

CORRECTLY REGISTERED 1964 AC FOR EASY WORLDWIDE REGISTRATION!  

THIS AC COBRA WAS PREVIOUSLY ROAD REGISTERED IN FRANCE AS A 1964 AC COBRA SHOWN IN VARIOUS FRENCH DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING THE CARTE GRISE, SO RE-REGISTRATION ACROSS EUROPE IN PARTICULAR FRANCE WILL BE A STRAIGHT FORWARD  PROCEDURE! IF THE POTENTIAL BUYER WOULD LIKE TO SEE SIGHT OF THESE DOCUMENTS, I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO PROVIDE.

* NOTE* THIS IS ONE OF MY OWN PRIVATE CARS AND IT TOOK ME MANY YEARS TO FIND THIS GENUINE ALUMINIUM AC FACTORY BUILT COBRA.  IT IS CERTAINLY NOT AN EASY DECISION TO CONSIDER SELLING HER BUT WE HAVE JUST PURCHASED A MAGNIFICENT CLASSIC FERRARI.  SO, MAYBE IT IS TIME TO RELEASE MY COBRA AND LET SOMEONE ELSE ENJOY THIS EXCITING MACHINE!

An interesting read taken from Motorsport Magazine in 1984 featuring the AC Cobra story :

https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/archive/article/may-1984/73/autokraft-ac-mkiv

Quote," Not surprisingly there have been a great many imitators over the past ten years or so, replicas abounding in America, for instance, and bearing a fair resemblance to the originals. But at Brooklands, inside the boundaries of the banked track, Autokraft are in the business manufacturing the real thing, genuine AC badged sports cars that have everything except the Cobra name - that is the property of the Ford Motor Company and they are keeping a tight hold on it.

The Autokraft AC MkIV could not be described as a replica since Brian Angliss has negotiated with AC for the right to produce the cars, and has all the original jigs and dies to do the job; he even has some of the original craftsmen on his production line, which is turning out two cars each week. They have aluminium bodies, just as the originals did" end quote.
