There's so many Cobra replicas out there sporting non-traditional colors, many observers of them probably have no clue what paint colors AC Cars originally offered for them. Ragoon Red was one, which I still think is a great color for a roadster. Another was Princess Blue. I came very close to choosing to have mine painted that color, but after driving it in black gel-coat which was what Factory Five produced back then, I really took a liking to my final choice, namely Ivory Green Metallic. It was a rare, but still original Cobra color, but it was offered by Ford, not AC Cars, so was only available in North America. Some special order cars were shipped with no paint directly from AC Cars. Being they had aluminum body's, rust wasn't an issue.
