This is one of Exoto's series of 1963 Cobras powered by Ford's 289 V8. This white race prepped Cobra is the 1963 Canadian Grand Prix winner in the GT class driven by Ken Miles. True to its heritage, it sports "AC" embossed pedals.

Nice ! This one's a real gem in white and Exoto's certainly featured amazing details.

Great model but you've got a cross up on it's history. This is a model of CSX2014 a car that was crashed at Daytona, sent back to Shelby American in California and was the chassis used as the body buck for what would become the Cobra Daytona Coupe
The car that Miles drove in Canada was CSX2129

Not trying to eat anybody's lunch here but Cobras are my thing and I happen to have both of those models along with 23 other roadsters.

@kocour As you might expect I love them in all colors and liveries - my all time favorite has sadly still not been made in 1:18 scale

It's CSX2323 that Dan Gurney drove at the Targa Florio in 1964.
