Shortly after Exner
presented the Revival-Cars
in an issue of the Esquire magazine,
the American Copper Development Association decided
to produce a show car.
The design of Virgil Exner was chosen, a chassis (VIN:
CSX 2451) of a Shelby Cobra was lengthened 18 inches, and coachbuilder
Sibona-Basano from Torino, Italy built the body.
For about a decade the car toured all over the world.
In June 1979 the car was offered for sale.
Today the car is owned by William Lyon, who is also
the owner of the Exner
Bugatti.
