|
|
Welcome all Collectors and
Classic Car Lovers.
We are
proud to introduce this authentic 1964 AC Cobra. Here is
some significant historical facts surrounding the AC
Cobra CSX-2167:
Unique prototypical Production
Line History-AC Cobra 2167 was the second 289 small
block Cobra to be manufacture by AC CARS Ltd with
-every- advance Mk.II (new model) mechanical part
upgrade.
-Ultra Rare Factory Paint color-
One of only three special Svecia Red (Ruby red) CSX
designated AC Cobras ever produced by the AC factory for
Shelby American.
-Unique Aluminum Front
Cooling Scoops-
According to information listed
on the original Shelby American factory invoice, along
with supporting documentation from both the Shelby
American "Cobra Service Bulletin No.6" and pervious
ownership records. AC Cobra 2167 was first utilized by
Ford Motor Company (FoMoCo) for what is believed to be
experimental proposes relating to above mention cobra
service bulletin. The service bulletin relates to
excessive cockpit heat troubles some Cobra customers
were experiencing in 1963-64.
-Fully
Documented with Updated Research
Information-
2167 is fully documented with an
unbroken chain of previous ownership history which dates
back thirty seven (37) years to Ford Motor Company.
Totaling only four previous owners, one interesting fact
concerning the ownership history of 2167 is that the
second owner, a Mr.Ray Cuomo, was one of Carroll
Shelby's world famous Shelby American Cobra Team race
car driver's from 1963 to 1965. Mr. Cuomo is alive and
well today and has prepared a personal letter
documenting the fact that he did own 2167 in the late
1960's. In Ray's words "the cobra was my personal
weekend driver".
-All Important, the Chassis,
Body Panels, and Engine are Original-
Documented
28,250 original miles with a -NO- accident history. 2167
is a all matching number Cobra with no surprises. Has
its original factory hardtop.
Current
Condition:
Represented in 1997 Shelby American
World Registry (SAWR) to be an Original/Restored 1964 AC
Cobra Mk.2 with an older color change repaint (Emerald
Blue), which was done in 1986. This is still the current
condition of AC Cobra 2167 today, beautiful and
Original. A very nice weekend driver. Kept in a heated
storage most of its life.
(Note: the mileage
information listed in the SAWR for CSX-2167 is a
misprint, should read "28K miles" not "38K miles". Also
the footnote part that reads "needing paint and
upholstery" is also second hand misinformation. But
remember, without the SAAC there wouldn't be a Cobra
collector world, as we know it today! Please keep up the
good work SAAC!)
If you are looking for a good
solid appreciating investment, or a highly collectable
museum piece, or just maybe a nice all original Cobra
driver. 2167 is all of the above. This is truly without
question a lifetime opportunity to own one of the most
important small block Cobra Mk.II in existence today.
