Summary

[edit]
Description

AC Cars group, started out in 1901, formerly known as Autocar and then Autocarrier Ltd and finally AC Cars in 1922, one of the oldest car marques still found in England. After the War, in 1920, the first six cyl car was introduced, proved to be very sporty and stylish and boasted amazing performance from the new overhead cam 40hp engine. The AC 2 litre was an exclusive and stylish saloon built from 1947-56. Two and, from 1952, four-door saloons were sold. In addition, as from 1949, a small number of drophead coupés and Buckland tourers were produced. The aluminium body on a timber frame fitted over a conventional steel chassis with rigid axles front and rear and elliptic leaf springs. The car changed very little during its ten-year production run, though the wheel size did increase slightly to 16 in in 1951 Engine; 85hp 1991cc 6 cyl with twin SU carbs
