    Does anyone out there know where one can find some of the Pete Brock design drawings for the Daytona Coupe of the 60's?

    In one of the books on Cobra there is a picture of Brock's wall behind the clay model and on the wall are drawings. The original drawings were small about 8 x 10 and the car at that time had a ring airfoil (like the Pontiac GTO judge) which Brock couldn't sell to Shelby.

    Maybe Brock still has them. I don't know his address but his wife works for Microsoft at HQ so maybe if you wrote him care of Mrs. Peter Brock c/o Microsoft.

    There used to be one of Pete Brock's very early sketches of what became
    the Daytona Cobra Coupe on the wall of the shop of PS Engineering. That was in the late 80's early 90's in Torrance CA. It was rather large, as I
    remember. Pete would stop by every now and then and say: " I hope nobody
    ever sees this." Don't know if it's still there anymore.
