Ken Miles Letter to A.C. Cars: 01 October 1963


This two page letter is from Shelby American's Ken Miles to A.C. cars. 

In the letter, Miles writes about how the Cobra could be improved upon by making them into "Daytona" spec. cars in a similar fashion to the Ferrari GTO.

We'd love for you to share your comments with us!

This might explain more about which car that letter was actually about. I believe Ken Miles was referring to the car that would later be known as the Le Mans Hardtop, two of which were entered in the 1963 24 Hours of Le Mans. This was well before the Daytona coupes.
