By late 1963, the leaf spring Shelby 289 Cobra was losing its ascendancy at the racetrack. Shelby first tried a Mark II model with a 390 V-8 without much success, but then developed a Mark III Cobra featuring a 427 cubic inch V-8 and coil spring suspension. About 300 427 Cobras were built from 1965.

One of the first UK auto companies to adapt an American V-8 engine was Allard, which some believe inspired Carrol Shelby to later conceive of the Cora.
Here's a 1951 Allard K2 with a 255 cubic-inch flathead Mercury V-8. 119 K2s were built in 1950-52.

The Apollo GT was an effort to make an Italian-styled GT car with American power. Fewer than a hundred were produced from 1962 to 1966 or so. Most were coupes, but a few convertibles were built as well. A Buick V-8 of 3.5 liters (215 cubic inches) provided the power. Final assembly was in Oakland, California. The Apollo GT had a sort of "American Ferrari" vibe.
