Vehicle Description
The Shelby Daytona Coupe (also referred to as the Shelby Daytona
Cobra Coupe) is an American sports-couprelated to the AC Cobra
roadster, loosely based on its chassis and drive-train. It was
built for auto racing, specifically to take on Ferrari and its 250
GTO in the GT class. Just six Shelby Daytona Coupes were built
between 1964 and 1965, as Shelby was reassigned to the Ford GT40
project to compete at the 24 hours of Le Mans, again to beat
Ferrari in the highest level prototype class. With the Shelby
Daytona, Shelby became the first American constructor to win a
title on the international scene at the FIA World Sportscar
Championship in 1965 and has recently been chosen for historic
preservation as a significant vehicle in the history of auto
racing.Our car isequipped with a built 5.0 liter 302V8 from a Ford
Mustang. It has 414HP and 440 torque which moves this very light
car down the road quickly. The exhaust is unmistakable and can be
heard a ways away when you get on it. 4 wheel disc brakes help
bring it to a stop quickly and safely. This Factory 5 car was built
in unison with another Cobra. Both in the blue and white color
scheme. The COMPLETE history and side windows are included with
