Pete Brock (born 15 November 1936) is a former racing car designer from the United States. In the early 1960s he worked with Carroll Shelby at Shelby American to build the famous Shelby Daytona coupe.

In 1969 he started his own motor racing team, Brock Racing Enterprises which worked with Datsun and Toyota and competed in Trans-Am Series races in the early 1970s. The company was disbanded in 1972.

Brock now lives in the Seattle area, working as freelance automotive writer and is a racing photographer.

He is currently involved with the Brock Coupe, a modern version of Daytona Cobra Coupe and other similar high performance kit cars. Over 120 have been produced in South Africa and sold by Superformance, LLC (Superformance Replicars). Peter also owns an example of the coupe (chassis #0073) painted Amulet Red with a Wimbledon White half-cove.
