The AC Cobra was the brainchild of Texan Carroll Shelby, who married a chassis produced by the tiny British sports car builder AC with the Ford V8 engine and in doing so created a classic. Awesomely fast as a road car and virtually unbeatable in competition, the Cobra gave Shelby his dream of beating Ferrari in the GT World Championship. AC Co6ra The Complete Story charts this fascinating story and covers the history; full specifications and road tests, and information on buying and restoring a Cobra.
