Sunday Drive.

[so called]

Well I know this looks like me bragging about my latest business trip but Sunday was realy very nice.
Spent the day in Malibu dossing on the beach and pretending to work in the form of reading some documents.
Anyway apart from the beach.....


There were lots of cars on display.
This one looked like a 1960's race car but I couldnt figure out what it was... any ideas?








And then there was a Lambo club outing. What a noise.
The black one at the back was an F40.





So apart from wishing my Wife had been with me, cant tell you how much I was missing my Tuscan.

IF thats one of the orignals its worth millions, I think 6 were made, this could be the rare sixth car, in that case it has some history an worth over 4million accourding to wiki, gorgeous looking car, im sure maximillion who organizes the gunball has 1 original

[so called]

I should have checked the driver out, maybe it was Mr Shelby himself.

There is a company making replicas of the original under licence, I think in South Africa. I think I remember one being reviewed on a TV show.

Look great though...

[Resin Rocket]

Possibly a Superformance replica judging by the tinted glass and wheel size / tyre profile ?

[L1AM]

I recognised the Daytona Cobra. Only from an old Micro Machine I have though.

I am the technical guy (Application Engineer) who tells the sales guy what to sell.
Very interesting line of products.......we sell rail car couplers and crash protection.

Good point about the tinted windows, it did catch my eye how modern the fit and finish of the rear screen was.

[anorak]Number plate is all wrong for an original Daytona, it should be black with yellow numbers for anything before 1970.[/anorak]

[phil pdp]

That Shelby Daytona is

Does anyone know if the rear wing on that Viper is a standard/option part or if it's aftermarket? It looks very tall.

Sorry guys but found amother beauty.

[Sneaky Schnell]

Apology not required.

NICE...
