1965 Nurburgring 1000 km, driven by Schlesser/Simon, "The Ford of France Coupe"

This was the only time that one of the Cobra Daytona Coupes appeared in this color scheme: white body finish with blue and red stripes. Chassis CSX 2300, subject of our item #RLG18005, was leased from Alan Mann by Ford of France for this race only.

It competed in the national Tri-Colore of France. Well known French drivers Andre Simon and Jo Schlesser drove this coupe at the very demanding Nurburgring circuit.

The Schlesser/Simon Cobra coupe leads the Biscaldi/Baghetti Ferrari during the late part of the race.

The car finished 3rd in the GT III category, and 12th overall. After the race, this unique white coupe was returned to Alan Mann Racing where it was repainted in the guardsman blue metallic color and white stripes of the 1965 Shelby American team.
