Yup - same one Migge. It was at the NEC so I had a good look at it. Because, as I recall, DAX modified a 427 shell it isn't quite right. When you see it in the plastic as it were, the back end between the arches looks too wide and too flat with a pinched profile as it joins the arches. You also get the wider trans tunnel and dashboard which sits at an angle. Not bad nick though. They also had the Ace converted to Cobra spec that's causing so much comment on the AC forum. Again, great looking car but 120k+ for a car that is neither one thing or another. I'll wait for Roger to build me a Kirkham :D
