AC

AC Cars Group Ltd. Formerly known as Auto Carriers Ltd. Is a British specialist automobile manufacturer and one of the oldest independent car marques founded in Britain. The first automobile that would become AC was presented at the Crystal Palace motor show in 1903. The company became Auto Carriers in 1911.

In 1962, AC was approached by Carroll Shelby to use a small Ford V8 engine, producing the AC Cobra. Shelby wanted a car that could compete with the Corvette in US sports car racing. The Cobra was a powerful roadster and commonly blamed for the introduction of the 70 mph limit on British motorways.

In 2003, Carroll Shelby International and AC Motor Holdings Ltd. Announced production of authentic Shelby/AC Cobra, with vehicles arriving in dealerships in July 2004.
