The original ones were never called AC cobras the english dub them AC cobras in Europe then the phrase made its way over to America

Dont belive me Shelby said it himself in an interview to mustang monthly look it up. They were all Shelby Cobras from the factory none were called AC

AC was the name of the company that produced the car before carroll shelby decided to put a 260 in it and call it a cobra. and these are real Halibrand wheels with knock off hubs. see..no lugnuts.

another thing to concider about the wrecked car is the steering wheel. why would it have a Grant style wheel and not the origional? plus, concidering just how few origionals are left they are all certain to be autographed by the man himself.
