Re: Measuring Up to the Competition
Completely off topic but the 427s were essentially a complete redesign and did not use the AC Ace chassis modified by AC & produced for the original 260 and 289 Cobras.
It is really amazing that it worked so well since there had been many hybrid cars with European styling and American powertrains (including the Facel Vega with Chrysler engines and Cad-Allards) but the Cobra was the one that really worked.
