How about a CD case - with the Cobra logo and text embroided on the outside ? These cases hold 24 CDs in 12 leaves.
They cost only £ 20,00 / Euro 30,00 each (including postage to anywhere within Europe).
To protect the top of your head from sunburn, how about a Cobra baseball cap ? There are two designs available ....
.... a black cap with embroidered red "Cobra" lettering, embroidered white "Cobra" badge, and
embroidered white "Mustang" text ....
.... or a black cap, with embroidered yellow "Cobra" lettering and a metal "Cobra" badge.
One size fits all - with an adjustable velcro strap at the rear.
We tested both models thoroughly whilst on holiday between Texas and Florida in March 2003, and could only bring back a
limited number with us - but we can order further items, delivery via air mail and within a month.
They cost only £ 20,00 / Euro 30,00 each (including postage to anywhere within Europe).

During restauration of my cars (AC Ace 1957 and Aceca 1955) I have some spares to sell or better exchange (for example front
disc brakes and fitting components).
On the other hand I'm still searching parts such as instruments or carburettors for the original AC engine.
If you search or have something for me, please don't hesitate to give me a mail to gies@tiptal.de
Thanks and happy motoring!

A.C. Acceca Bristol 1954 full set of horizontal 1-1/8" tube bumpers 2 ea. for front, and rear.
The car, (not available) was metallic maroon, and had a stage 2 Bristol engine if that helps to identify since Accecas were rare in Canada.

Almost Unique piece of AC memorabilia
A 1960's Sun diagnostics Unit from the Thames Ditton factory service department.
It's believed complete and working but does not have an instruction manual.
The on/off key has a keyfob that reads "AC Cars Ltd, Services Dept, Sun Engine Tester."
One of 2 known to exist - the other is owned by the Brooklands Museum.
After I had bid on several books in his eBay auctions, Terry Wills informed me that he has a number of copies of
Trevor Legate's excellent book "COBRA, The Real Thing" for sale. These are 'seconds' that he bought direct from the
publisher, and he has sold a few through eBay at prices around £14 - £16 (which is well below the £25 new price). Postage
within the UK or to Germany will add about £4 to this price .
If you are interested, please contact Terry directly - either via e-mail
or at

Tel./Fax +44-1453-811 819
but please don't forget to quote the "289 Register" to be certain of getting the book at this price (I paid £45 for
this book a few years ago, and still think it's worth every penny too!)
