How it all began…

Have you heard of Peter Brock? If you are familiar with racing history then I'm sure this name will be ringing a bell. The ac cobra is actually the second version of the 289 cobra Daytona coupe. It's known today as the Daytona super coupe, or simply the super coupe. The first coupe was actually finished in March 16, 1965. Hence, some race car fans refer to it as a 1965 coupe so as not to confuse it with other models. After undergoing several mishaps in its construction the final version is considered as one of the most powerful racing cars ever built. At the same time, this legendary car is one of the first race cars built to be used on the ride even when you are not into racing. So you know that there were only 6 original ac cobra cars built during the 1960's? That's how rare it is!

Why it's legendary…
There are many reasons why many people would love to have their very own ac cobra. This legend is famous for the many victories it has won on the race track. For instance, during the 1964 and 1965 World Championships, the coupe brought home the gold even when it battled against the Ferrari GTO! Imagine that! If you are familiar with Bonneville races, then you will be amazed to know that this model bested other racing cars in its entire career with records that total up to 23 all in endurance and car speed.

Upon his retirement from the field of racing, Carroll Shelby sough the assistance of Ford to make the fastest race car in the world. The result of all his hard work would end up being known as the cobra. And with Peter Brock they later came up with the Shelby Super coupe, a car that in turn wowed crowds of people in races like the LeMans. This British car was a breakthrough combination of fine lightweight parts and a powerful Ford engine.
