1965 SHELBY DAYTONA COUPE
1965 SHELBY DAYTONA COUPE – GEN 3 FACTORY FIVE – BONDURANT TRIBUTE – BRAND NEW ICON
The Car That Beat Ferrari. Reborn. Offered by The Boat Wholesaler.
This is not a replica.
This is not a toy.
This is not common.
This is a 1965 Shelby Daytona Coupe, Factory Five Gen 3, professionally built by an authorized Factory Five builder, finished in the iconic #26 Bob Bondurant tribute livery.
This is the car that made history.
The first American car to defeat the undefeated Ferraris on their own turf.
And this example honors that legacy in spectacular fashion.
With only 25 kilometers, this is a brand new build in 10/10 condition, never shown, never abused, and never compromised. It presents today exactly as it should: tight, aggressive, purposeful, and absolutely breathtaking.
This is a Gen 3 Factory Five car — the latest and greatest evolution of the Daytona Coupe platform. Most cars you see are Gen 1 or Gen 2. Gen 3 examples are extremely rare. This is the one serious buyers wait for.
Under the hood lives a Ford 302 V8, delivering classic American V8 punch in a lightweight chassis weighing only 2,400 pounds. The result is a power-to-weight ratio that is sharp, responsive, and exhilarating.
Power is delivered through a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission into a Ford Racing rear end, giving you proper race-bred gearing, instant throttle response, and mechanical connection the way this car was meant to be driven.
This is a fully street-legal race car.
Built with a full tube chassis, roll cage, manual steering, massive 4-wheel disc brakes, and 4-point racing harnesses, this Daytona is engineered for real performance. You can drive it to Mosport on the highway, turn laps all day, and drive it home. That's exactly what this car was built to do.
It even retains practical features such as wipers and street equipment. The racing windows are included (not shown in photos), completing the full competition look when desired.
And then there's the sound…
This is, without question, one of the best sounding cars you will ever hear in your life.
At idle it's controlled. On throttle it is violent.
It will drown out a pack of Harleys without effort.
When you lift, it crackles and snaps like the Fourth of July coming out of those beautiful dual side pipes.
It is addictive. It is intoxicating. And it is almost impossible to keep your foot out of it.

• Never been to a car show
