Well, it has been decided, the big beasts of Formula One begin the new F1 season in Austria in early July, but the Ennstal Classic has been cancelled for this year. No surprises I guess and at least AC ‘Bluebird’ does get automatic entry into next year’s event, and we have an extra year to […]
AC Bluebird is featured in a TV programme which will be shown on national TV later this year, and part of the filming process introduced me to DNA Coachworks. The brilliant guys at DNA Coachworks are able to do a digital scan of any car in precise detail and then produce a digital buck of any car. The buck can then be used to repair bodywork.

I got a call last October from Jim Stokes Workshop in Waterlooville asking me if I would mind if the restoration of my AC Aceca ‘Bluebird’ could be a feature article in the Classic Cars magazine. Would I mind? What a silly question! I was more than happy for the AC to be photographed and […]

AC Bluebird will be on display at the Prostate Cancer stand at the NEC where you will have an opportunity to see one of Donald Campbell’s former cars. There will also be plenty of information about Prostate Cancer on the stand and this may prompt you to have your own thorough check up.
This year’s Goodwood Revival was probably one of the best ever. The sunshine was glorious, the racing was thrilling and everyone really seemed to be having a good time. AC Bluebird was on the JSW Stand and received a lot of attention, in fact many people enquired if it was for sale!
AC Bluebird has experienced many decades of music, and now has its own soundtrack that captures its spirit perfectly. The soundtrack is also very now, today, vibrant, energetic, exciting, inspiring. Just like AC Bluebird!
After a busy summer AC Bluebird is back at Goodwood for the Revival Meeting. Not racing but, like its owner, relaxing and enjoying the fun.
The car is on display at the Jim Stokes Workshop stand, number 318.
