Daytona Shelby
Discussion
Here's a car that caught my eye, looks pretty good and authentic (proper spinners etc..).
But why so cheap?

The description says "tax exempt" so it's an old car.
The rear number plate is white on black (old car detail) but not below the number plate light. There doesn't appear to be a front plate.
If there are any problems with registration documents it will require SVA, which it will fail.
That number plate light isn't for the number plate it's for illuminating the race number has similar on the doorsThe rear number plate is white on black (old car detail) but not below the number plate light. There doesn't appear to be a front plate.

It's still registered as a Daimler in the UK so will be a potential nightmare at MOT time if they refuse it, only option would then to be the SVA route..............
This model was manufactured by a Father & Son team, who sold the rights to Shell Valley about Four years ago. Shell Valley made a number of changes and we SVA'd their first Daytona replica three years ago at Southampton. There are easier places to SVA than Southampton, but we felt that if it could pass there, then other test centers will be a bit easier.
We had to make a few modifications in order to pass, although we had no issues with external radius measurements, as the car has a naturally smooth shape. SVA would not be particualrly easy for this vehicle, but not impossible.
