Shelby Announces Return of the Legend

The original Shelby Daytona Coupe is considered America’s mythical unicorn. It’s hard to argue the Coupe’s place on America’s road racing Mount Rushmore, joining its brother the AC Cobra and Gt40 as some of Americas most storied race cars. Only 6 Cobra Daytonas were built between 1964 and 1965. In 1965, Shelby won the FIA World Sportscar Championship, prying away the title from rivaled Ferrari. So with each of these examples in the multi-million dollar range, being able to get your hands on of these is near impossible, until now.

  1. Bunch of mustangs made a run thru the mountains from Greenville up thru Brevard to the Blue Ridge Parkway and back. Great fun for all. The ol 84 kept up with the shelbys in the curves but not a chance on the straights. Lol
