AC Aceca

I photographed this car at the Aston Martin Owners Club's meeting at Oulton Park in September 1992.

It's a 1957 AC Aceca, a coupe version of the AC Ace, and was produced from 1954 to 1963. As with the Ace, the Aceca had the choice of a straight-6 AC engine of 1,991cc or a straight-6 Bristol engine of 1,971cc, and there were also a few cars that has a tuned version of the straight-6 2,553cc Ford Zephyr engine. The DVLA record says that this car has a 1,971cc engine which seems to be the Bristol unit.
