Daytona Coupes... Which one?

[acindrich]

You never know what Kirkham Motorsports will pull out of the hat but there's been a few images of an aluminum Daytona floating around that they have. I might wait around a bit to see if they don't start offering one. I assure you that if they do it will be worth the wait.

Good luck with your decision!

I think the Kirkham Coupe is a project that's been on hold for a while, like their billet 427 engine. The pictures of the coupe at Kirkham were of an unfinished McCluskey Coupe that the Kirkhams had borrowed to take measurements from.

Which puts another option out there, the McCluskey coupe is almost certainly more expensive than the aluminum CSX9000.

I'm sure that would make a great car if it ever gets built... Though for me it would most likely be too expensive, plus I need a car which has been registered before to avoid hassle with new-car registration taxes

The original Daytonas and the SPF's have distinctly different lines. Now I am not sure which pics you were referring to, but I have seen pics of a Coupe at Kirkhams that had SPF lines and not original ones. I think they may have even been sent to me by Peter Brock. I assumed that they were for the Shelby aluminum versions...if any are sold. The lines were far more sleek and less truncated than the original and my understanding is the McCluskey cars are virtual clones of the originals.
