That car embodies my favorite Carol Shelby quote.."there's no such thing as too much horsepower. Just not enough traction." Truly wish I could have met that man.

I saw this car when the IRS was showing it before the sealed bid auction in 1997. Minimum bid was $235,000. It was the original color then that was lighter blue. It has been through changes since first built, different superchargers and somehow the shifter comes out of a different location in the tunnel that before. Dash a little different as well and all those red and blue fittings and braided lines were not there before.

@@countrymorgan2942 The Daytona Coupe was powered by the same 289 as the early Cobras. They made around 380-390 horsepower. The 427 Competition models made 550-600 horsepower. These power numbers were made by 1960's engine technology that was available at the time. The Super Snake engine was a 427 Competition engine with twin Paxton superchargers on it and an Edelbrock crossram intake manifold with 2- Holley 660 cfm carburetors and made 800-850 horsepower with 1960's engine technology. Packaging all that power in a 2400 pound car is what dreams are made of.

Um, A turbocharger relies on a vehicle's exhaust to spool up a turbine to power a compressor. The compressor then pulls in and feeds more air to an engine. On the other hand, a supercharger depends on the engine to rotate. ... A supercharger doesn't rely on exhaust gas and power comes immediately.

@@cmccarthy I can barely picture a '69 fastback doing 145 with a 4 barrel 390. My Mom's '68 GALAXY *2 barrel* 390 4-door could hit 120 with enough open roadway and FAR worse aerodynamics.

only $5 million? Especially with Carroll Shelby's history with that car, it should've brought more (I would think). That kind of is a bargain for the new owner.

I have a feeling the last owner thought the same thing. I would imagine people buy this car as an investment but clearly this one is not growing for some reason.

@@LordHolley Do you understand how much 5 million bucks is? And to pay that for a car is insane.

@@blessed7fold In the world of those classics, it is actually 'cheap' at the price. As they say about investments though, they can go up or down. For a contrast, the same year a McLaren F1 sold for 20.5m$, and in 2018, a Ferrari 250GTO went for 70m$. Both of those cars are special, but they also made more of each that this Shelby and the SC versions (30 of those), yet almost never fail to sell for higher and higher prices. Amazingly of the 36 GTO's made, all were still accounted for when that one got sold.
