AC ACE Parts for sale
Whilst building my ACE I have had to fabricate some parts as they are just to hard to find. Often, I will make 2 or 3 at a time so others can get hold of illusive parts. All parts are made as original as much as possible. I also have collected some spares and those not needed for my project will be posted here. Click on any picture to see a larger one in any of the galleries PLEASE NOTE: Most of these parts are for the early AC engined ACE.

The illusive AC ACE / AC 2 Litre bell-housing cover plate.
This part is often missing from AC gearboxes. It can be seen from the engine bay of an AC ACE when looking at the gearbox bell housing from the rear of the engine. Part Number D187E V. It fits the UMB and UMC AC Engine series.
AC ACE Exhaust Manfolds / headers.
Fully Refurbished for 6 Cyl AC ENGINE (UMB)
SOLD - £500 - NO LONGER AVAILABLE - Sold to UK AC ACE Project
AC ACE Exhaust Manfolds / headers. Fully Refurbished for 6 Cyl AC ENGINE (UMB Weller). These headers we bought as a pattern to make new ones but they were too good to discard. Instead, they were restored with new lower flanges and pipes. The set was blasted and then treated to a coat of high temperature paint. Condition as pictures. The excellent work was undertaken by Hayward & Scott the race and classic exhaust specialists in the UK. I can ship these worldwide but please ask for a quote. UK Postage will be about £35.

AC ACE Cooling Fan, Bracket and Lower Pulley FOR SALE -£600
This is the illusive AC ACE cooling fan and bracket complete with lower pulley. Many original AC ACE cars that have the AC UMB 6 Cylinder engine have been converted to electric cooling and the original fans have been lost or trashed. It is a shame. We were after one and managed to get hold of one so that we could fabricate a copy. In our view, the original fan adds a real sense of personality to the car and gives it that period engineering charm.
This is a brand new fan, bracket and lower pulley for the AC ACE with the AC 6 Cylinder engine. The lower pulley is made of alloy as per original in all aspects. The fan was cast by making a mould at a foundry. The fan will need small amount of cleaning up. We have polished ours and taken out all of the imperfections from the casting process and it looks great. You or your metal polisher will need to spend a little time polishing if you want this to be flawless. However, for those that like a more authentic 'used' look, you can use it as is and just bolt it straight on. The Fan has the holes threaded as per the original. The bracket is an exact copy with the only real difference being the fact that we used bearings to aid the movement of the centre shaft. We felt this was an improvement worth making. A grease nipple has been retained in the original location and is operational. So if you are fixing up an AC ACE that has lost it's bracket and fan or if building a replica AC ACE using an AC engine this is for you. I apologise for the price but as you can imagine, projects like this don't come cheap and it reflects the many hours, research and materials used. I only have one of these sets available and I will not be making any more so when it is gone it is gone. I will ship worldwide - please ask me for a quote. In the pictures you can see the original bracket next to the fabricated one. Also, there is a picture of an original AC ACE with the bracket in-situ for your reference.

AC ACE Phosphor Bronze RPM Drive Bracket. This is a rare part. We were remanufacturing one for our AC ACE project and made 2 more at the same time.

For the ACE ACE engine already fitted with an RPM drive this would be used as a replacement of yours was shot.

AC 'Black Face' Speedometer for refacing and calibration
SOLD - £525 - NO LONGER AVAILABLE - Sold to Switzerland
This is the very rare Smith's 'Black Face' Speedometer that was fitted to, Aston Martin DB2 - Calibrated at 140MPH, AC ACE 6 cylinder AC engine - Calibrated at 120MPH, AC Aceca Ac & Bristol engines - Calibrated at 120MPH & 130MPH respectively, AC Bristol with Bristol engine - Calibrated at 130MPH, AC 2 Litre Saloon - Calibrated at 100MPH.
This gauge is from an AC 2 litre saloon and is much rarer than the 'White Face' version that was later production. This gauge can be refaced and calibrated for any of the above cars. Trying to find a speedo for any of them is tough, so this presents an opportunity to get the gauge and have it match perfectly.
I have just completed this task for our HAWK AC ACE replica and have included a picture of what one of these instruments looks like refaced and restored. Visit my instruments page to see the companies that do this work and to get the information required.
I have also included reference pictures for all of the above cars as a guide.
This gauge needs glass and the winders - they are easy parts to obtain and if you were to get this guage refaced and calibrated that work would be done at the same time. On principle, I always have my clocks rebuilt and tested. This then goes to the instrument company for facing and calibration. I have not tested the clock. It is probably OK but always better to have them rebuilt if you can run to it.
