AK 427 Cobra Replica - ACC 828A

The AC Cobra, sold as the Ford/Shelby AC Cobra in the United States and often known colloquially as the Shelby Cobra in that country, was an American-engined British sports car produced intermittently since 1962.

Over the years there have been many replicas and although I can't find any official records to confirm this isn't original, I think it's highly unlikely. In fact, I've seen other photos of it online which refer to it as an AK 427 so I'm going with that unless anyone out there knows any different.

You can fully understand why the replicas are becoming so popular when you hear those statistics and look at the price differential ... thanks for that Pierre! :)

I don't know that I've ever seen an original car with a hard top. This one is a bit like the Shelby Daytona. Here's a photo of an original 289 car at the Shelby Shop: www.ipernity.com/doc/indycaver/36399550

Yeah, I was thinking about the Daytona when I saw that hardtop fitted Norm, but the front end is obviously quite different.

Thanks for the link to that 289 photo! :)

Wow! I'll bet that poor thing has a lot of men's drool on it.
