[Coronet440]

Wow guys...I appreciate all of the info about my car!!!

Yup, the Q5 that Scott and I saw in IL is now well known.

Is the one here in IL the only known 4-speed?

The other four are automatics, so yes so far.

So every time this gets brought up it makes me think, just how many are there. I had heard at one time there was 7 but I can not think of all of them. Drives me crazy.
2 that were at Daisy's. one in Ohio. One in Illinois. One still in California I think with tan interior. Are there any more?

I've never heard the "7" number, though that doesn't mean it wasn't batted around or isn't true.  There were three "known" cars, and it was the IL car which was the third one, known years ago through urban legend.  Obviously the two Daisy's cars were the ones everyone had seen, and when my friend's surfaced here in OH, it was the 4th of 3.  The CA car was known to be orange before the owner posted the fender tag here a year or two ago, making it the 5th of 3.

It would be interesting to know who came up with the 7 figure, as it would be cool to know if there were more or if it was an extrapolation based on known cars.

I believe that would be this one:

Am I missing something where is the clutch pedal? All I see is an auto brake pedal.

The original engine and transmission were long gone and replaced by a 340 and 727. When the current owner bought the car many years ago, He drove it to Illinois from Georgia powered by the smallblock! The pedal was likely changed when the engine and trans were replaced.
It is a real 440 4-speed Q5 daytona

Thanks for all of the compliments on the car!!!

[Speedfreak]

Congratulations on the purchase.  They must have come down to reality on the price.  They tried every trick in the book with shill bidding on eBay to scam someone into purchasing it at their inflated prices, luckily no one fell for it.  Good luck.

[Coronet440]

Thanks!! Yeah, they were certainly trying to get alot for it. I traded a hemi car that the guy wanted badly and some $$. It was still expensive but I feel I made out pretty good in the deal.

WooHoo !!!!  I'm all about the trade, "Troy-trade, Troy-trade, party-down"     ......................  If you don't know, that's how I got mine... No cash, just two cars.. An incomplete '68 Hemi Charger R/T restoration project and a '69 Charger 500....

So Ryan, you're the newest AB ( Aero-Bastard )........ I'm so proud of you !!!

Mike, the throne's been taken away by Ryan.......
