On an original center emblem, does the "AC" in the center of the steering wheel emblem have one or two chrome rings around it? On an original 1965 GT 350 center emblem, the "COBRA" and snake head have two rings. Pictures below:

One. There were multiple versions of the "AC" style part made past circa 1964. A lot of the 'new old stock' ones floating around in collections were actually a version created for the A.C. 428 Frua cars subsequent to Cobras. The reproduction parts that Valley Ford made available are copies of the 428 Frua version of part.  I have a slide show available comparing known Cobra production originals to Frua and Valley Ford parts.

More detail? Specific part and assembly details questions are better suited to emails as some subjects are quite complicated and some of my sharable files on are quite large (up to 108 pages or if there are lot of illustrations up to 105MB of material).
