Product Description

The legendary AC Cobra is one of the world's ultimate no-compromise sports cars. Originally derived from the AC Ace, the brutal Cobra was the result of Carroll Shelby's dream to combine British chassis expertise with the easily available power of a large capacity American V8 engine. 40 years on from its debut, this much imitated car is revered the world over, and original examples have become highly sought after. This book should appeal to all sports car fans, as well as to Cobra enthusiasts.
