200 AC Cobra Replica By Fiero

[aem10]

I wonder if anyone can assist me. The rotten weather in the UK is restricting my use of my new AC!! I'm looking for a new soft top and some kind of rudimentary window,perhaps folding down from the soft top,which would provide a little protection? Can any AC owner point in the direction of anyone who could provide these for me?
   
   You can email me on:

   Thanks

Hi Anthony. I would try the Cobra Replica Club forum, but bear in mind that many replicas differ from each other & ACs, so yours will have to be bespoke I would think.
   Of course, REAL AC drivers don`t need no sissy soft-tops!!!

   Brilliant!!   BTW Can I send you some pics from Le Mans to post as everyone says this is the best method?

Can`t take any credit for that one, James (Duggan) saw that on another site`s "Supercars spotted" forum! I believe Keith has webbed feet now, he`s driven the Ace in so much rain!

Contact Gerry Hawkridge at Hawk cars, he made mine and it kept us as dry as possible on the way back from Lemans. Cant do more than 70 with it up but boy did all those brave  Caterhams, Morgans, Cobra and C type replicas take a bath on the way home without a hood.[:)]

Hehehe... I meant real DRIVERS, LOL [;)]. Plenty of replica owners won`t put wheel to tarmac if there`s a whiff of cloud too!
   Did you see the Le Mans Classic thread?
   Seriously though, hope you find a hood & enjoy your new pride 'n' joy.
