Default 427 Willmet Daytona Coupe?

I visited the shelby museum in boulder, co last saturday. When I got there they said "no cameras", what's up with that?

One of the more interesting cars there was an unfinished daytona coupe. I asked about it and they said it was started by Willmet as a 427 Daytona but since the 427 didn't get homologated it was never finished. Looking in the unfinished headlight holes I confirmed it was on a coil sprung chassis.

Wow what a great car that would have been.

Anyone have any more information on this project? It's the first I've heard of it.

Chuck
