It may not be one of the original six, but it's as close as you can get without spending 7 figures. And if a 289 isn't enough for your taste, you can slap a Roush 427 under the clamshell hood! Superformance Daytona Coupes are no joke, and this one is a perfect example.

Great video of the Superformance Daytona and nice to see Donald behind the wheel! I work for Superformance and our cars are built to the highest quality. My father (Dave MacDonald) ran the first built Shelby Daytona CSX2287 to the marques first victory at the 12hrs of Sebring in 1964. Well done Jay and Donald

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

Rich!!! Hope you and the family are well! The work done at Superformance is indeed of incredible quality. Thanks for tuning in, and for the kind words! As we hope you know, we appreciate your friendship and are honored to have your father’s Cooper Monaco King Cobra in the collection.

@lowbaritonewwj Год назад

Rich, do you know Rem's daughter? She is married to one of my second cousins. I think she mentioned your name in the last few years?

@josephconsoli4128 Год назад

It'll always be my favorite body style. Every curve is perfection, conveys raw power, and cool factor? Over the top!

@troynov1965 Год назад

Its amazing Brock designed that car at such a very young age and hit it out of the park. If they would have not gave up on it and put all the attention to the GT40s just think how much more the car could have accomplished.

@zcat1006 Год назад

I've never seen Mr. Osborne so happy and relaxed. It's cool to see him authentically happy while driving this awesome beast!

Oh you lucky guys, this is my dream car! I love the Coupe and you should do a long interview with its creator Mr. Pete Brock. His stories are hust amazing.

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

You’re in luck! We caught up with Peter while in Amelia Island! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GM9zw4RBSL4.htmlsi=J0_2EsFc68pRr_Nz

Dear Donald, very very nice movie 😊, it’s so nice to see the Daytona dynamic …I have also one since 2019, SPC0040, and because it was stored for about 10 years, we restored it and did lots of changes to make it a real driver car … well I m from Germany and here we can go maximum speed on the autobahn 😊. I love the Daytona since I was 8 years old in 1968…and it took a long time until one is mine . When Superformance came with the Daytona , I was shure it only could be this car for me …with history and the fingerprint of Peter Brock . For me it’s not a kit car , for me it is a contiuation car. At the beginning of the restoration Ron Weingart connected me to Peter Brock, what a amazing friendly and fine gentlemen. He helped me so much with very interesting informations during the restoration …I love him 😊…we are in contact until now , because he always want to know , what we are doing with the Daytona😊 Very sad that it is not possible to put pictures in here🤷‍♂️…by the way , my vintage team jacket is blue , because , when they raced in Europe , they used the blue ones . All the best to you from Germany , Bernd

@melvinburwell8202 Год назад

Automotive royalty. Listen to that engine. Wow. I have heard of this company. Mr. Osborne is decked out in that suit. Beautiful car 60s style. Mr. Osborne likes it. Yeah. Need earplugs maybe. Lol. Love you guys. ❤💙🐉👍🤑😎

@RADThird1 Год назад

Superformance make great cars! Saw one of their GT40's (a "roadster") version at my local gas station about a year ago. The owner took some time getting it filled up. The pump hose barely reached the off-side filler. Gotta love those twin tanks. That did give me some time to get a good look at it though. Beautifully made. Hard to tell that the body work was composite, even up close. And what a great sound with those tuned pipes ending in the famous chrome trumpets.

@tumblelake63 Год назад

I've always thought of Superformance as a car builder not a kit car manufacturer.

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

We agree! They make some magnificent machines. You can be as original as possible or make it exactly to your liking with a newer and/or more powerful drivetrain. We love it!

My wife and I love our (now her) Daytona Coupe. Over 70k miles and over 2k on track. We've taken it on tons of long trips (great luggage room in back) and very comfortable considering how capable it is on track. Superformance and Peter Brock made for a winning combo in designing and delivering a modern GT car with retro looks!🏁🏁🏁

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

Doug! Welcome to the channel! We love our Daytona Coupe - had it out for a track day at Club Motorsports just a few weeks ago and then had the chance to take it for a spin with Jay. Doesn't get much better than that! Phenomenal machine.

Outstanding for sure. I am sure I am behind the curve, but is there any bid/book info on your new look? Kidding, you look great.

@klintonkacatin Год назад

The true Ferrari killer. The proper documentary needs to be made on this vehicle and the team behind it. This beat the GT40s and almost won Le Mans overall and got the Ford factory attention.

@davemeshamsr6000 Год назад

Hard to hear u two but the car looks great and sounds great one of my favorite cars

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

Hard to hear anything with those side pipes!

@divadyrdnal Год назад

Love that the bow tie matches the seat belts…

@AudrainMuseumNetwork Год назад

We can neither confirm nor deny whether that was intentional. However, Donald is often quite good at matching our 4-wheeled stars, so we’d venture to believe this one was on purpose.

@clutchpedalreturnsprg7710 10 месяцев назад

Are not the Superperformance coupe available with an aluminum body from Kirkham Motorcars for an additional price?

@johndeere1951a Год назад

The reason for full safety shoulder harness belts is no air bag system in the steering wheel and dashboard. That's OK. Buckle UP ✌️

@bobedwards8550 Год назад

Ford issued a dictate that Shelby was to concentrate on the GT40s for 1965. When the Daytona Coupe won the World Manufactures title they were being run by Alan Mann racing in England. Shelby didn't even want the cars back and considered having them dumped in the English Chanel as a cheaper alternative to shipping. Alan Mann personally footed the bill to ship them back to Shelby American. Shelby G40s would have won at LeMans in 1965 but Ford demanded he replace the engines with Ford assembled ones for the race. They all failed due to bad head bolts. They learned their lesson and used engines prepped by racers for 66 and 67. But they messed up again in the 68 TransAm series when they demanded Shelby install the tunnel port engines as supplied and not even take a peek inside. 4 engine failures cost Titus the championship. He had delivered the 1965 B Production championship in a GT350, the 1966 TransAm title went to Ford for Titus' win at Riverside and the 67 TA title went to Ford with Titus driving. 68 started well with Titus/Bucknam at the 24 hours of Daytona placing the Mustang 4th overall behind 3 prototype factory Porsches - 56 laps ahead of the 2nd place Penske/Donahue Camaro. I've always wondered if the GT40 program would have continued if the Daytona Coupe won overall at LeMans in 1964 if not for a cracked oil cooler that dropped them to 4th overall but still with their class win,

@lancerbiker5263 Год назад

@1969EType Год назад

Of all the Shelby cars, the Daytona is the least well known and the least respected...and I do not understand that. This car brought Carroll Shelby an FIA Championship for GT Manufacturers in 1965. This was the first time an American car constructor won a championship. Shelby Daytona Coupes won GT class in 1964 at the 12 Hours of Sebring, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the RAC Tourist Trophy, in 1965 at the 24 Hours of Daytona, again at the 12 Hours of Sebring, the Italian Grand Prix at Monza, the Nurburgring 1000KM, the 12 Hours of Reims, the Enna-Pergusa and set 25 land speed records at Bonneville. Styling is matter of opinion. I love the lines on this car. Performance is fact and its heritage and lineage cannot be disputed.

@jjmac3561 Год назад

More than 6 in Historic motor sports. Much like Lotus Cortina mk1 and Austin/Morris Cooper s in motor sports

@fredericrike5974 Год назад

Today, a "supercar" wants bags of time to design and refine; the Daytona Coupe was originally built in a hurry, on modified chassis for the Cobra. Yet, like some many racing ventures Carroll Shelby got into, it beat the snot out of nearly everything. Donald, you're the historian; where are the six original Daytonas today? Particularly the original that has a slightly higher roof line? Always have a moment for whatever you guys are up to!

@godsowndrunk1118 Год назад

I sold my 68 Mustang GT and the price I got is just enough to build one of these. Im not spending the money until we have an administration that's not threatening to eliminate cars... You know who in 2024!

Superformance will build you a 427 Cobra or Daytona Coupe in Aluminum if you are prepared to pay for it.

@Edison73100 Год назад

@Cobra3901 15 дней назад

Yeah it’s a kit car just like a lot of race cars are kit cars. Technically the second and third generation Ford GT’s and the new GTD Mustangs are sort of kits…assembled by a race car mechanics. I’d take any one of those “kit” cars any time. I’d even settle for a Daytona Coupe. 😆

@chilliwhiggerE 4 месяца назад

That car could be as fast as some modern supercars if you spec it out right. If you want it with twin clutch and paddle shifters they can do that. Carroll Shelby had paddle shifters in his personal Daytona Coupe. Peter Brock has an LS7 in his personal Daytona Coupe. There are also wide-body models known as the LM edition. There are so many mistakes, concerning this car, made by these two it's embarrassing.

Thank you for featuring one of my favorite car designs of all time. Amazing that the original race cars could be bought for bargain basement prices when they moved on to other projects. Crazy what you'd par for one of them today (if you could even find one for sale). Think THIS replicar would be my first choice if I suddenly came into money. Beautiful ride.

What recent change in the law?

@BradThePitts Год назад

Yes, he wasn't clear - it varies by state. Some states allow a car to be inspected and be registered by bodystyle - in this case the car can be registered as a 1965 and you will not need an annual smog inspection, et cetera. Some states limit the amount of cars that can be done per year, for example, the state of California allows 500 of them.
