Update 9/8/14 – Many of you thought this was a fake, but the supposed owner just commented and apparently our little discussion got him motivated enough to pull it out and get it running again! He also claims that it does in fact have a CSX COX number…

From 8/10/14 – Submitted by David Meyer – Nestled away in a rural back garden just 40 or so miles away from central London UK, I’ve found treasure! Yes, it’s aluminum. Yes, it has a FE engine. And yes, it has a CSX chassis number and registration. Does this qualify as a barn find?

I ran across the car by accident. I went to buy a couple of Lucas SQ8 fog lamps. I got to talking to the guy and that’s it. All I know is that he’s an old retired Ford Design Engineer and that he’s had the car for years. He keeps it in an old shed, but pulled it out just to show me. I noticed it has an FE big block with a T10. The guy said it has inboard rear disc brakes and that AC only made a few like that. It’s got a locker, standard AC wires, and Prince of Darkness (Lucas) electrics. I don’t think its ever been restored and looks complete but very tatty. Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s for sale…

Thanks for sharing this with us David! Looks like it has lived a very interesting life. So what do you guys say, does it qualify?
