Space in the wheel arches make it look kinda odd, or is it because it's standing on a curb? -- Last edit: 2019-11-26 13:38:36

AC used the coil-spring chassis and larger body with a 289 Ford and called the car "AC 289 Sports" because Ford wouldn't let them use the Cobra trademark at that point. the car in the image looks like an original, but I couldn't say which specific car.
