AC & Cobra 1962-2011

The Cobra was Carroll Shelby's brainchild.  He contacted AC in 1961 and secured promises of the Ford V8s and finance for racing.  AC, Shelby and Ford were soon in business.  The Cobra's development was rapid, but there were teething problems and international success did not come easily.  Much later, AC cars were bought by Alan Lubinsky and many changes were introduced, aimed at making the business profitable.  The 55 articles in this portfolio give a full and comprehensive picture of the history of AC and Cobra cars.
