I take @beaulieu_garage's AK427 AC Cobra replica out for a spin around the fantastic roads of the New Forest and use my knowledge of my Dax Tojeiro to compare what it is like.

@Jabber-ig3iw 4 года назад

The spec is very nice. Much closer to the genuine cars than most replicas. Shelby originally wanted a Chevy V8 for the cobra but they didn’t want to supply an engine to a corvette competitor so he went to ford.

@AdamC3046 4 года назад

Correct, a fact I often inform the 'Ford boys' when they shout at me.

@colinellison762 2 года назад

Great Video Adam, That beautiful AK is Gen 1, and is slightly smaller inside (fine for me) because of the wide tunnel, the later Gen's have a narrower tunnel so a bit wider inside (not that you need it! lol), i think the column on that one is a Ford, mine is a Rover and has in and out, as well as up and down movement, so i sit at arms length, its also made for a much taller person than me, so i have spacers on the pedals, as i sit away from the wheel, mine also benefits from hydraulic PWS, that i would recommend to anyone. Keep up the great work with your passion for all things Cobra!

@petyrkowalski9887 3 года назад

I prefer under body pipes and the more classic look but all cobras are amazing.

@joegoodman4312 4 года назад

Greetings from, hopefully another southerner and new subscriber. 2 things, first thing, you having a Cobra of some description restores my faith in younger motor heads having genuine taste, thank goodness. Second thing, where did you get the jacket? All the best, stay safe.

Enjoyed the review thanks. I would take issue with you though over the chevy engine. A ford 302 is more compact and just as tuneable and certainly no more expensive. Never understood why people put chevys in a cobra

When comparing to a modern, you said no heating , but my AK has a heater, noticed the fan switch on the dash so wonder if this one does too ?

Yeh perhaps this one does. I didn't consider it too much as I'm used to my one, which doesn't have heating. But I know a lot use heater units from old Minis.

@groundbeef662 4 года назад

@@AdamC3046 Yeah i think the AK uses a VW Polo one, didnt build mine so not 100%sure, i think Pilgrim used to use Mini i am sure some of the older builds i have seen have the old mini slider thingy on the dash. I have had a couple of MGBGT V8's they didnt need a heater as that Rover V8 used to warm you up through the bulkhead nicely lol
