Nice car.  Gotta be one of the nicest cloneTonas done.     After the work to build it, I would have had a hard time letting it go.

I truly appreciate that. I just love building cars. I don't have tons of money so I usually need to sell one to build the next. This Daytona is definitely among my favorite. I'm glad to see it make others happy though .

Beautiful job Brian!

Hello Chaps ,

Thought I'd just confirm that this beautiful car is actively for sale on eBay and hemmings also.

Back in April of last year sadly my father was diagnosed with an in curable and in operable brain tumour, limiting his time with us, a Hemi Daytona was always on his so called bucket list so when this fine example came up he really couldn't say no. The car arrived with us in late July of last year, we managed to get it out a good few times and was lucky enough that I could take my dad out in it also. Sadly in October of last year he passed away and now the time has come to find a new loving owner.
The car hasn't changed from when it was sold from Brian, only thing he tells me is that the mufflers may have been changed at some point.
The car is in dry storage and always has a good clean when she is put away again.
We feel it's only fair that we offer the car back to America where I feel there is more enthusiasts for this type of car and obviously more people know of the car.

Please feel free to contact for further questions or you can call me on +447585700377
Kind regards
Steve

Brian is correct.  When i owned the car I installed longer 3" mufflers to quiet down that big Hemi engine.  Now driving it is more enjoyable because you don't have to yell at your passenger in order to be heard.   There's just a deep mellow tone with these mufflers.  Driving this car is a real pleasure.

Steve Jordan

Indeed it is a lovely car to drive, it looks good, stops good and goes well. All in all its one of the best Hemi cars I've been in, and I've been in a few !!

Getting the old girl out next Sunday for a local show, looking forward to that but sadly with the amount of interest in the car I feel it may be our last show  :rotz:

Sorry for your loss Steve.  Thanks for joining and giving us the story.

It's my pleasure, it really kills me that it's for sale but the good times and the good memories were made when dad was around, it just doesn't feel the same now. It really is a stunning vehicle and drives like new. Like I said above I'm out in it next Sunday and I'm sure I'll be taking lots of photos and videos, I'll add them up on here .

Cheers
