We must have had this here before, haven't we?
Anyhow: it's the Ferrari 365 GTB/4 'Daytona' that's better known as the Panther Daytona. It was modified into a shooting brake in 1974 by Luigi Chinetti, while Robert Jankel of Panther Westwinds fame was commissioned to build it.

That's what I thought too but no amount of searching would find it, so amazingly, no!

Ok, I have a couple other names and details to throw around, but the result seems the same.

This started as a 1972 Ferrari GTB/4 Daytona, Chassis #15275 - the 805th Daytona built.
The car was originally shipped to the Philadelphia Ferrari dealer Chinetti-Garthwaite.
Two years later the car was sent to Surrey, England to the Panther Westwinds facility.
Luigi Chinetti Jr and Gene Garfinkle collaborated on the overall design, which modified nearly every exterior body panel except for the hood/bonnet. 
The car was sold by Panther as a 1974 model back to the US.  It's changed hands a number of times, including a sale in France and subsequent showing at the Paleis Het Loo and Goodwood.
It's been through Barrett-Jackson, Bonham's, and Mecum along the way.
