AC Cobra Replica V8 Fuel Injected 302 1965
General description :
Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to offer a ferocious 1965 Factory Five AC Cobra replica. Factory Five has been making kit cars since the mid-1990s. They have completely changed the kit car industry by putting out a consistent high quality product with performance in mind. They build Cobra replicas, Daytona replicas, 33 Hot Rods, and even have come out with their own track oriented car. These amazing machines are made in America and sold is a variety of kit levels. Some share of the Cobra kits are designed to accept parts from a modern Mustang. This particular Mark II features a 302 CID V8 which is a fuel injected and packs quite a punch. With a custom intake and of course performance oriented side pip exhaust, this baby really screams. The 302 is coupled to a 5 speed manual which shifts beautifully. With all that power, you need to be able to stop, so disc brakes in all four corners bring everything to a halt. This example has a classic red with white stripes color scheme and sports bumperettes front and rear. The interior is all business with two low back buckets, 5 point harnesses, and full instrumentation. Hidden away in the trunk is a stereo, the battery, and a power cut off. This is a very well put together performance package. If you're looking for a track car, a cruise night vehicle, or a back roads carver, this is a bargain of a vehicle that can do all three. You can see this 1965 Factory Five AC Cobra replica in greater detail in our St. Louis showroom or at http://www.GatewayClassicCars.com.

About AC
AC Cars formerly known as Auto Carriers, is one of the oldest independent car makers in Britain that has its roots going as early as 1903.AC appeared to a greater public with AC Ace, a lightweight roadster designed by John Tojeiro with a Weller-designed 2-Litre engine. Soon after, car dealer and racing driver Ken Rudd fitted his own competition Ace with a pre-war BMW-designed, Bristol-produced six-cylinder engine. This combination became known AC Ace-Bristol in 1957 -the car raced at Le Mansin 1957 and 1958.
In 1962, AC was approached by a certain Carroll Shelby to use a small block Ford v8 engine in the Ace, producing the AC Cobra -The legend was born, initially with 260 & 289 engines.
When switching to a bigger 427 engine, a completely new chassis was needed. In collaboration with Ford’s computers and the experience of the AC engineers, the new MKIII was born with thicker main tubes for the chassis, huge cross-braced shock towers and coil springs all around. This, along with the "side oiler" 427 engine, made the new AC Cobra MKIII a formitable race car. Initially a commercial failure, has now become the most replicated auto mobile ever.
