Interesting
AC has really had a checquered past, curious if it is still the same bunch or someone new has now taken the reigns?
The Cobra marque has a difficult enough time without the fly by night operators that prey on our hobby.
Guess you can call me skeptical but I still love my Cobra

Same bunch - Lubinski.
All PR - we'll see how many cars they actually deliver.
At this point, with ShelbyAmerican suppliers all stable finally (SPF & Kirkam) why bother really. Quality Cobras are just not hard to find - as they had been in previous decades.
The problem is really price. The costs of these little beasts keeps climbing. Rollers from SPF, Kirkam, and Shelby have gone through the roof. What that means for us is a transformed membership base eventually. We'll have fewer "gear heads" in the hobby, and more "One Percenters". On a positive note though, the as the asking prices of new cars continues to increase - so does the value of our current Cobras. I have considered calling my insurance company to see if an adjustment to my agreed-value policy may be in order.
I know I went a bit off-topic, but it's an interesting development.

Lubinski
Thought Lubinski went belly up - everyone figured out his program?
Guess there's still one born every second.
