1978 Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona Replica – Iconic Style, Custom Craftsmanship, and V8 Power
This 1978 Ferrari 365 GTB Daytona Replica is a compelling tribute to one of Ferrari’s most celebrated grand tourers. Finished in eye-catching Fly Yellow over a classic black interior, this replica captures the unmistakable style and presence of the original 365 GTB/4 Daytona while offering a more accessible and maintainable driving experience. With only 9,900 miles since completion, it remains in excellent condition and offers an attractive blend of classic aesthetics and reliable V8 performance.
Built during the height of the Daytona replica movement, this example showcases the wide, aggressive stance and long-nose proportions that defined the original Pininfarina design. The front-end design, pop-up headlights, sculpted bodywork, and integrated side vents are all styled to emulate the legendary Ferrari with remarkable attention to detail. The bright Fly Yellow paint enhances the dramatic body lines and offers strong visual impact, while subtle black accents give it a purposeful, road-ready look.
Power is delivered by a 350ci V8 producing approximately 175 horsepower, mated to a manual transmission for an authentic, engaging driving experience. While not a V12 like the original Ferrari Daytona, the small-block V8 provides plenty of accessible performance and a muscular exhaust note. The drivetrain is known for ease of maintenance, parts availability, and reliability—ideal for regular enjoyment without the complexity or cost associated with vintage Italian engines.
Inside, the cabin features a clean, functional layout with black upholstery and classic touches inspired by the Daytona’s grand touring roots. Bucket seats provide a supportive seating position, and the traditional manual shifter adds to the driver-focused experience. The layout balances vintage charm with usability, making this a car that can be enjoyed both on spirited weekend drives and at classic car gatherings.
With three owners from new and only 9,900 miles showing, this Daytona Replica has been well preserved and presents as a thoughtfully built and well-maintained example. Whether you’re an enthusiast seeking the iconic Daytona look without the multi-million dollar price tag, or simply want a head-turning classic with unmistakable Italian flair, this 1978 Ferrari 365 GTB Replica offers tremendous style and value in one of the most iconic silhouettes ever created.
