AC
AC is Britain's oldest surviving vehicle marque, tracing its origins to 1901 and its name — Auto Carriers — to 1911. A maker of handsome sports tourers like the Ace through the 1950s, it earned immortality in 1962 when Carroll Shelby dropped a Ford V8 into that chassis to create the Cobra, one of the most imitated and coveted sports cars ever built. The company survives today in low-volume production of continuation and modern interpretations of the Cobra, while original Thames Ditton cars anchor the top of the Anglo-American collector market.
AC Ace
The Tojeiro-designed AC roadster that became the Cobra's donor car — three engine families across a decade, roughly 723 cars in total.
AC Aceca & Greyhound
The fixed-head coupé and 2+2 GT derivatives of the AC Ace — the Bristol-engined Aceca leads the market.
AC Cobra
Carroll Shelby's Anglo-American roadster — 998 original CSX-chassis cars built 1961–1968, from the 260-powered founding run to the big-block 427 S/C.
AC 428 Frua
The forgotten Anglo-Italian-American GT — Cobra underneath, Frua couture on top.
AC 3000ME
One of the rarest road-going ACs — a mid-engined British coupé with a transverse Ford Essex V6.
