1962 AC Ace (often called the Ruddspeed Ace, with the 2.6 Ford straight six engine from Ken Rudd).
These were the last of the AC Aces before a very tall chicken farmer from Texas put a V8 under the bonnet and the Cobra legend was born.
(He was very tall, not the chickens…)
The ACOC says there were 36 of these built at AC plus two by Ken Rudd (one being the prototype).

Top work!
Cheers, chaps! But not due to any "skill and astute purchasing" by me, though.
They were bought by my late father a long time ago.
The SS100 came from one of his friends in 1965 (three years before I was born!)
The Ace arrived in 1977 – my "vehicle of choice" at that time was a Raleigh Chopper….
These were his favourite cars, so everytime I look at them I remember him, which is nice because I think back to the times we spent tinkering with them.
But also a bit sad because he's not here anymore.
