Robin's comments below:

"Dear all, After more than 12 years in the making, I'm incredibly proud to finally share "Finding the Heart of the Cobra", a story that goes far beyond a car.

  This film is a journey into the soul of my 1962 AC Bristol, Chassis BEX 1213, the machine that helped shape what the Cobra would become. Along the way, I've had the honor of connecting with some of the very people who lived and defined that history, including Allen Grant, Peter Brock, Billy Krause, John Morton, Mike McClusky, Lynn Park, along with many others. Narration on this film is by Ned Scudder, bringing it all together.

  What started as a passion project turned into something much deeper, a search for the origins, the spirit, and the people behind an icon.

  This isn't just about horsepower or heritage, it's about heart.

  Thank you to everyone who helped bring this story to life. The journey has been unforgettable, and now it's finally time to share it.

A great Video on the History of Robin Groves Ace Bristol "BEX1213",  also Covers Cobras and Daytona,
ACOC Ace 60th Anniversary Race at Silverstone. and AC Thames Ditton
Puts faces to well known names on both sides of the Pond..
Make a coffee or open a bottle of wine and settle down to a very interesting 45 minute Video.
Sent   the link to Terry Webb a couple of weeks ago for inclusion in ACtion  for those ACOC members who do not visit the Club Forum.

Robin's AC is included in the upcoming Gooding-Christie's Pebble Beach auction:

I saw it regularly at the SCCA races in Tucson Arizona in the mid 1960's. Hope it finds another loving home.

Unfortunately my racing images are from too far away.
