1969 Dodge Daytona wing modified for 1966 Charger

"Modified" being the key word.

I'm pretty sure it is also, although I never thought I'd see the day.  Is it a joke?

[J.Bond]

Oh Crap......

That's Mauve 66, hope everything is Ok.......

[lukedukem]

Oh Crap......

That's Mauve 66, hope everything is Ok.......

[wingcar]

Like others have said....hope all is well with Mauve and that perhaps he has just found another project he wants.  Sad to see a dream unfulfilled.   I was hoping to see the Charger completed........

[Ghoste]

Same here, guessing no one has tried to contact him?

[ODZKing]

Yeah, that is Mauve66, Robert from Vegas.
I think I will drop him a line.

[1974dodgecharger]

Hellcat purchase?

[RallyeMike]

From the ad it sounds like he is ready to move onto something else. That 66 has been stalled out for a long time. It happens.

[TruckDriver]

Oh Crap......

That's Mauve 66, hope everything is Ok.......

[ODZKing]

Emailed him yesterday.  Got a short reply.  Sems everything is OK, just "want to get out of the Mopar biz" he said.

What's the difference between a hobby and a bad habit?  A hobby is something we choose because we like it; once our feelings change then it just becomes a bad habit, an addiction that needs to get kicked to the curb.  I wouldn't be surprised if his intentions to sell aren't genuine though; unless I misunderstand the article I don't think too many people will be interested in buying both vehicles as a "combo" deal...

Have always like that car.  Too bad he's selling.

[Dino]

I was hoping to see that car on the road some day.  Shame.

What's with the triple shifter setup?

[Ghoste]

Its just one of those Hurst Lightning Rod setups like you could get in the mid 80's Hurst Olds modified with pistol grip handles.

[Dino]

I'll have to look it up as I don't know what they do.  I was dreaming of a Delorean in the mid 80's.   

[J.Bond]

Not a bad asking price, just doing a little math on what he has posted, aside from the fact, some assembly required !!!! is a given. I'm thinking this is somewhere around 50 cents on the dollar??? And I did not even include the wing......

[RallyeMike]

I agree - I have always liked this car (without the wing). I would love to see this car in person when completed.

Disassembled projects usually can be had for a good deal if you are willing to bet everything is actually there.

This is one of the best series of pics I've seen in an ad showing everything spread out.   

[Patronus]

Sure is hard to see it sitting there, all ready to go. Some primer and block for a few days... mmm
Mauve with a black wing. Like an Audry Hepburn thing.

Yeah I didn't want to say it, but the car isn't too far from being where it needs to be.  It's close to being done so it's sad to see it go...

[Ghoste]

Maybe there'll be a bright side to it all though if the car goes to someone who is eager to see it to completion.

[JR]

Sounds like he's just burnt out. I understand that completely.

Except for the out of place wing, this had the potential to be a beautiful car when completed. Hopefully the next owner will complete it.

In the end that's what's important.  Rather than another car lost in limbo, maybe we'll have another Mopar pounding the streets with the rest of us...

[Ghoste]

And maybe even someone new to the hobby.  Glad Mauve66 is okay too for the record.

[odcics2]

Make a nice stock car...

[A383Wing]

before the wing

[Ghoste]

Yep, it was a nice car and it still can be, just needs some love to bring it to the next phase.

[Mopar Nut]

We should call Overhaulin, they did one not too long ago.

[472 R/T SE]

I remember asking him about his rig a while back.  I mentioned something about it not looking like it needed a restoration, can't remember his replies.

I damn sure wouldn't kick it out of the garage.

I like the asking price of his SRT10.  Luckily residual has leveled off the past year or so it seems.

Neat-O
Hope he leaves it in mauve.
The triple shifter is an old drag racing unit.
