[Historybuff]

The Willment coupe was
built by Sir John Willment's team
when they were refused the opp. to buy a new Daytona
coupe from Shelby. It supposedly had a fastback window and first
but now has a fastback profile but inset rear window (similar to Pantera).
I have seen it at various Shelby gatherings. I gather it was as fast as a Daytona coupe built by Shelby. When Author Frank Barrett was researching a book on the cars in the Shelby Collection he printed this rough draft of the Willment coupes' original racing career:
