John,
   
   RSX 5028 belongs to Paul Staiger who has owned his Ace 2.6 since new! He has a most delightful collection of correspondence from AC at the time of purchase of his Ace.
   
   Paul lives at Boulder Creek CA and is a Member of the ACOC.
   
   Best regards to all

Thanks Jonathon, that's what I thought. I'd seen previous photos of it at Pebble Beach (and I believe a video of it on roads around Los Gatos, when I had RS5024 I lived quite near there).
   
   The original UK plates on the red 2.6 at Pebble Beach (and in the Pebble Beach tour photos) confirms that it is RS5030, Jim Feldman's Ace.

   Constant....are you going to try to make the U.S. International?  If so, that would be great and you can test it out on the great roads we have over here.

It was sure great seeing this AC Aceca Bristol at the Historic's event. Been a long time since I have seen one up front and personal.
   
   
   
   
   First time I have seen an AC Autokraft in years as well.

I really enjoyed finally seeing this rig in person.. I have seen numerous pictures (mostly black and white) over the years. Very cool that someone kept it all these years.

A site to behold! Cobra's coming through the famous corkscrew. Only seven of the 41 in the race, were 427 powered cars. Sorry the quality isn't better, but I didn't have a true video camera.
