I don't believe it's a real one. But still cool to see.

Bob, in your link you have a picture of a Midnight Blue 67 GTO convertible with a White Top and White interior. Did you happen to talk with owner or take a close look at the car?

doesn't matter to me. there's only 5 real daytonas and the closest one to dc is in a museum in philly I believe. I'll never have the money to buy a real one so i'll have to settle for a kit car.

Here are a 'few' pics of cars from the last two Saturdays... this view shows a portion of the cars that attend>>>

A very nice Jag 120... and Phil's now lowered/Fiske wheeled/C6 brakes ZR-1>>

A very nicely restored (not over the top like sooo many restorations) 427 Chevy>>

More pics>>

A very nicely done Morgan>>

Ferrari????>>>

but fired by a Corvette engine

Car was actually made by an Italian company that 'stole' the Ferrari look and dropped in a Corvette engine...story goes that after about the 4th one produced big brother Ferrari contacted company and basically said 'cut the merda out' otherwise.... well the end of the car.

Couple more>>

Older gentleman owns this car (1939 Lincoln Zephyr) and is one of his "daily drivers"...not restored but properly maintained>>

Talk about a narrow V... 12 cylinder>>

And the BMW Isetta (powered by a 250cc BMW motorcycle engine)>>>

Finally, I almost bought one of these when they first came out...anyone can guess what it is...and it is powered by a V4 (thus the very small hood opening)>>

I didn't talk to the owner. I took a look at the car up close, though not necessarily a close look.

And it looks like I missed a V coupe last week, though I think the dragstrip was more fun!

The owner told me that it was a Shelby cotinuation car made by Shelby in the early 2000 (2003? 2004? can't quite remember). Sold with 65 manufacture date.
