Default All Six Daytona Coupes at Goodwood
They'll be there for the Goodwood Revival on 9/11-13: All six Shelby Daytona Cobra Coupes to reunite at Goodwood Revival | Hemmings Daily

They usually live stream the racing, which is generally more spirited than U.S. vintage racing. The event homepage is here and will probably soon put up a link to the live stream:

Actually 7 original coupes. There's also the unloved 427 Daytona Coupe which, personally, I find quite ugly - especially the hind quarters. Shelby Cobra Daytona 427 Super Coupe

The point being made though is that there have been replicas and converted roadsters raced at some vintage events. They help draw in the crowds and most wouldn't know they weren't watching an original.

That would be a great event to attend. I don't think all 6 of the originals have been on track together since they raced in the 60s. Wish I could attend and see them.

As I understand it all six of the coupes were NEVER together in the 60s save for perhaps at the SA shop. All six are not shown in the records at any race I have seen.

If all six show up, that will be historic.
Basically a 50th family reunion.

I, on the other hand, find the 427 Super Coupe quite attractive and muscular. Different strokes for different folks...
