The AC ACE, produced in 1956, was known for its elegant design and sporty performance. This model was an important milestone for the British car brand AC Cars, which had been in business since 1901. Designed as a light sports car, the ACE featured a hand-built chassis and a beautifully lined body. The use of aluminum for the body contributed to its low weight, which resulted in excellent driving performance. The AC ACE was powered by a 2.0-liter six-cylinder engine, which was capable of providing a lively driving experience, and the car was often chosen by car enthusiasts and racing teams.
Over the years, the AC ACE managed to carve out its place in the motorsports world, with multiple victories in various races. The model also served as the basis for the legendary AC Cobra, which was developed in collaboration with Carroll Shelby. The combination of style, performance and rich heritage made the AC ACE a desirable car among collectors. This model embodied the sporting spirit of its time and remains a symbol of British automotive art to this day. To get a good idea of the lot, we recommend you come to the viewing day.
