CSX9999 is the last of the series of 50 Anniversary Daytona Cobra Coupes produced by Shelby American and is owned by key members of the Shelby leadership team. Its highly-polished, aero-efficient, all-aluminum form enfolds a reproduction of the Cobra Daytona Coupe chassis that won the FIA’s World Championship for GT cars in 1965.
This car comes with a period correct 289 Ford V8 engine that has been internally enlarged to 364 CID to produce in excess of 500 BHP. An updated Tremec TKO 600 (5) speed transmission has been installed to handle the engine’s extra power. This highly improved engine/transmission combination has been matched with a stronger 3:54 aluminum differential with an oil cooler which completes the running gear that makes this car race-track or museum ready. It is equipped with all the same suspension, steering and cooling system modifications that made these unique thoroughbred racers so fast and easy to drive.
This particular car has been personally signed by Peter Brock, the man who penned the car’s iconic lines.
CSX9999 has been featured in the Shelby American Museum in Las Vegas and is offered as a complete, ready-to-drive package at $ 600,000 USD.
