Have to talk about a beautiful car I saw yesterday.....

A beautiful AC Cobra replica pulled into my local Dunkin Donuts, yesterday. I had to strike up a conversation with its' owner and find-out some details. It was a luscious, almost liquid looking paint-job - British Racing Green - with beautiful tan leather interior. The owner said the frame was manufactured by some firm in Connecticut and had Jaguar components on its' all independent coiled suspension. The wheels were magnesium knock-offs. Under the hood was an all-aluminum 427 that he got direct from Shelby - he said it produced 565 hp! I'd be surprised if the total weight was a ton. It was a beautiful day, anyway, here in New England, but seeing that car made it a day not to forget. If I had a choice between an original and this thing, it would be no contest! My Aero with a 3" exhaust doesn't sound bad, but this V8 with huge side pipes made it sound like a mangy alley cat with laryngitis!
