White car in the background. Looks like maybe a Shelby Daytona Coupe?

KingOfJericho · 06-03-2008, 12:55 PM

Yup, Daytona coupe

JWA · 06-03-2008, 01:07 PM

Yeah, most likely one of the newer reproductions.

Superformance. One of the locals here has one (celling).

I recently stopped in at G.A.S. at Roscoe at the 405 freeway here in L.A.

They are a full-service customizer for Galpin Ford, and were seen on the recent and now canceled "Pimp My Ride."

In addition to a huge store filled with exhaust systems and body panels and seats and shoes and brakes and you name it, they have a showroom with about 60 cars that are amazing, including a real Shelby Daytona like the picture above.

Check it out sometime!

Larry,

Are you sure it was a 'real' Shelby Daytona? Only 6 were originally built. They are impossibly rare and impossibly expensive if one comes on the market.

Not saying it wasn't a 'real' one, as in one of the originals, that would be something.

More likely the new Brock version, which actually has some legit lineage with the original cars.

I agree that it's a Superformance replica. Here's some more info on it: Superformance Brock Coupe - Road Test - Motor Trend
