A breed of powerful hybrids appeared in the 50s and 60s and raced on both sides of the Atlantic, featuring European chassis and large American engines – from the early Allard cars via hybrids such as Lotus 19s fitted with large engines through to the AC Cobra.

" Though more valuable than comparable AC or Shelby replicas, the Aceca is still a bargain when compared to a Shelby CSX Cobra, while maintaining similar performance.

In 1962 AC was approached by Carroll Shelby to use a small block Ford V8 engine in the Ace chassis, producing the AC Cobra.

This, along with a bigger 427ci version of the FE, made the new AC Cobra MKIII an absolutely unbeatable race car.

The AC 427 Cobra, although a commercial failure when in production, has now become one of the most sought-after and replicated automobiles ever.

Meanwhile, AC went on producing a milder version of the 427 MK III Cobra for the European market fitted with the small block Ford motor.

AC contacted the famed Italian coach builder Pietro Frua to design an appealing GT body that could be fitted on a MKIII Cobra chassis stretched by.

Both the Cobra Mk IV and the Ace were made, and soon a ' CRS ' version of the Mk IV was announced with a carbon fibre body shell, a 212 S / C version with Lotus twin turbo V8 power, as well as the AC Superblower with a supercharger Ford V8.

In 2003, Carroll Shelby International and AC Motor Holdings, Ltd. announced production of an authentic Shelby / AC Cobra, with the production vehicle arriving at dealers in July 2004.

Initially, available models included Shelby AC 427 S / C Cobra and Shelby AC 289 FIA Cobra, which would be branded as the CSX 1000 and CSX 7500 Series, respectively.

In 2010 AC announced a joint venture with the USA based company Iconic which resulted in the design of the ultimate ' Cobra ' the ' Iconic AC Roadster '

" Jay Leno used " Hold on I'm Comin " while driving his AC Cobra on his 2009 Super Bowl commercial to announce his show's move to 10pm.

In the 1960s, American motor dealer Jack Griffith decided to put a 4. 7 litre V8 engine from an AC Cobra he owned into a TVR Grantura, in much the same way that V8s were first transplanted into AC Cobras.

The AC Cobra, also known colloquially as the Shelby Cobra in North America, is an Anglo-American sports car that was produced during the 1960s.

For AC, such delays meant that the first production cars ( now renamed 3000ME ) were not delivered until 1979, by which time they were in direct competition with the Lotus Esprit.

The 550 is among the most frequently reproduced classic automobiles, like the AC Cobra and Lotus Seven.

The song reached the American Top 10 on the Pop ( No. 6 ), Country ( No. 7 ), and AC ( No. 3 ) charts and earned her a Grammy for Best Country Female and an Academy of Country Music award for Most Promising Female Vocalist.

) Newton-John also continued to reach the Country Top 10 where she tallied seven Top 10 singles through 1976's " Come on Over " ( No. 23 Pop, No. 5 Country, No. 1 AC ) and six consecutive ( of a career nine total ) Top 10 albums through 1976's Don't Stop Believin ' ( No. 30 Pop, No. 7 Country ).

The soundtrack album spent 12 non-consecutive weeks at No. 1 and yielded three Top 5 singles for Newton-John: the platinum " You're The One That I Want " ( No. 1 Pop, No. 23 AC ) with John Travolta, the gold " Hopelessly Devoted to You " ( No. 3 Pop, No. 20 Country, No. 7 AC ) and the gold " Summer Nights " ( No. 5 Pop, No. 21 AC ) with John Travolta and the film's cast.

The solution chosen is to switch the electrical system, from Swedish 15 kV, 16. 7 Hz to Danish 25 kV, 50 Hz AC right before the eastern bridgehead at Lernacken in Sweden.

The Phil hold weekly chamber debates every Thursday at 7. 30pm and regularly award host high-profile celebrity guests, including Al Pacino, Sir Christopher Lee, Courtney Love and philosopher AC Grayling.

For the week ending December 23, 2006, the Dean Martin and Martina McBride duet of " Baby, It's Cold Outside " reached # 7 on the R & R AC chart.

Lines of this type are used in Germany to supply electric railways with single phase AC at 16. 7 Hz

Electricity distribution could be improved so to make use of a more structured electricity line arrangement and universal AC power plugs and sockets ( e. g. the CEE 7 / 7 plug ).

WNEW first logo as " Blink 102. 7 " Sounders during that period teased listeners about how " a new station " would soon be coming to the 102. 7 frequency, and it arrived in April, when WNEW became " 102. 7 Blink " ( keeping the WNEW call letters ) and adopted an unusual " Entertainment AC " format.

However, ZF plus GCH implies AC, making GCH a strictly stronger claim than AC, even though they are both independent of ZF.

There are important statements that, assuming the axioms of ZF but neither AC nor ¬ AC, are equivalent to the axiom of choice.

Here are some statements that require the axiom of choice in the sense that they are not provable from ZF but are provable from ZFC ( ZF plus AC ).

The much stronger axiom of determinacy, or AD, implies that every set of reals is Lebesgue measurable, has the property of Baire, and has the perfect set property ( all three of these results are refuted by AC itself ).

( c ) Ligeantia localis, by operation of law, when a friendly alien enters the country, because so long as they are in the country they are within the Sovereign's protection, therefore they owe the Sovereign a local obedience or allegiance ( R v Cowle ( 1759 ) 2 Burr 834 ; Low v Routledge ( 1865 ) 1 Ch App 42 ; Re Johnson, Roberts v Attorney-General 1 Ch 821 ; Tingley v Muller 2 Ch 144 ; Rodriguez v Speyer AC 59 ; Johnstone v Pedlar 2 AC 262 ; R v Tucker ( 1694 ) Show Parl Cas 186 ; R v Keyn ( 1876 ) 2 Ex D 63 ; Re Stepney Election Petn, Isaacson v Durant ( 1886 ) 17 QBD 54 );

The best known AC class is class III or AC-III ( Roman numerals are used for classes ).

These are also sometimes called simply AC1, AC2, etc., and, somewhat confusingly, sometimes Roman numerals are used for these isoforms that all belong to the overall AC class III.

These are the smallest of the AC enzyme classes ; the AC-IV from Yersinia is a dimer of 19 kDa subunits with no known regulatory components.

There is a total of, ( double track ( as of 1998 )), of which are electrified, mainly at 3, 000 volts DC but with at 25 kV 50 Hz AC ( 2004 ) and all on standard gauge of.

Electrification is at 3 kV DC, with the exception of the new high-speed lines, and of two recently electrified lines in the south of the country which are at 25 kV AC.

The only other purine-pyrimidine pairings would be AC and GT and UA ( in RNA ); these pairings are mismatches because the pattern of hydrogen donors and acceptors do not correspond.

The abbreviations AC and DC are often used to mean simply alternating and direct, as when they modify current or voltage.

In Connelly v DPP ( AC 1254 ), the Law Lords ruled that a defendant could not be tried for any offence arising out of substantially the same set of facts relied upon in a previous charge of which he had been acquitted, unless there are " special circumstances " proven by the prosecution.

Rectifiers are constructed from diodes, where they are used to convert alternating current ( AC ) electricity into direct current ( DC ).
