Meet Our Special Guests – 11 AM – Noon

peterbrockPete Brock – Everyone knows Peter Brock for a different reason. To historic Corvette fans he’s the guy who penned the lines of the original Sting Ray racer and by extension the ’63 Corvette “split window”. To Cobra fans meanwhile, Peter’s the guy who took the brick-like Shelby Cobra roadster and turned it into the slippery Cobra Daytona Coupe – the first American car to grab the FIA’s GT World Championship in 1965.

Pete will be available for autographs from 11:00 AM to Noon on Main Street at the Factory Five tent.

 

 

 

allengrantAllen Grant – Allen earned his reputation as a winning international sports car driver, competing for Shelby American. Allen is a member of the world-champion Shelby-Ford-Cobra Racing Team that won the 1965 FIA World Championship with the famous Cobra “Daytona” Coupe.

Allen will be available for autographs from 11 AM to Noon on Main Street at the Factory Five tent.

 

 

 

 

jocoddington

Jo Coddington – Jo Coddington is considered by many to be the “Queen of Hot Rods.” To others she is the “Duchess of the Dragstrip,” but when speaking to Jo directly she said, “I just wanna be known as a car girl,” this down to earth, “car girl” attitude has been one of the propelling trademarks of Jo’s personality.

Among many notable accomplishments, Jo appeared on “American Hot Rod” with her husband Boyd. Most recently, Jo joined industry women on “Detroit Muscle” building a 427-powered Factory Five Mk4 Roadster.

Jo will be available for autographs from 11 AM to Noon on Main Street at the Factory Five tent.
