About the Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe #5 D. Gurney / B. Bondurant 24 Hours of Le Mans 1964 Exoto 1:18

TL;DR: Exoto's 1:18 diecast Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe reproduces car #5, driven by Dan Gurney and Bob Bondurant at the 1964 24 Hours of Le Mans, with opening doors and bonnet. It is a used example, box showing traces of storage. The Daytona Coupe took a GT class win that year, giving this replica real competition credentials.

Carroll Shelby built the Daytona Coupe specifically to beat Ferrari at its own game in GT racing, wrapping a Cobra chassis in an aerodynamic body designed to hold together at Le Mans speeds far beyond what the roadster could manage.

Exoto's Diecast Recreation of Car #5

This casting carries the Daytona Coupe's distinctive Kamm-tail rear and low, elongated nose in zinc alloy, giving the model real presence despite its compact American muscle-car heritage. The livery reproduces car #5's period markings from the 1964 race, and opening doors and bonnet expose the V8 layout that defined the Cobra's straight-line advantage over more delicate European rivals. Exoto is known among endurance racing collectors for detail-heavy liveries, and the panel gaps here sit at standard diecast tolerance given the mechanical access built in. This is a used example, box showing traces of storage; the livery decals and paint edges are the details worth checking closely on arrival.

A GT Class Winner Against Ferrari

The Daytona Coupe's 1964 Le Mans entry, with Gurney and Bondurant sharing driving duties, secured a GT class victory that embarrassed Ferrari on its own home turf of endurance racing, a result that still anchors the car's reputation today.

Placing the Daytona Coupe in a Le Mans Collection

Set beside contemporary Ferrari and Jaguar endurance racers from the same era, this Cobra's blunt, muscular shape stands out as the American challenger. Its racing number and period livery make it an obvious storytelling piece within a 1960s Le Mans-themed display.
