The Shelby Daytona Coupe (also referred to as the Shelby Daytona
Cobra Coupe) is an American sports-coupe related 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.
