I have to comment about the car. They only put on half quarters, you can tell looking into the trunk area photo where it's undercoated. Second, what a waste. Nice color combo, thats about it.

Dave, It's actually G0G. The seller posted the VIN.

Not feeling that vinyl top on a Daytona or 'Clona.

That looks like it's still got it's original trunk pan too. Or at least someone did a damned good job cleaning up the center weld...a much better job than they did on the 1/4 patches. ::)

One thing I don't get is why would someone do all that work on the car...and not replace the $4.99 dome light lens? :ahum:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

69charger2002

couple things i noticed. the DAYTONA lettering is too high up, the 2 taillights are different and there is no bezels around the lights.. the front door panels are charcoal and the rears look homemade. i'm just being picky, i like the car., just noticed some things is all

Seller says car originally came with 318 and a 4 speed.....I did not think they made any.

Bryan  (but what do I know)   ???

BigBlockSam

if you could get it for about $20000 , it would be a great beginning to a keep ass replica .

I guess I'm still stuck on the "clone" terminology.  I saw the title of this thread and thought it was going to be about somebody driving their wing car really fast.  Oh well. :-\

jaak

I dig the velcro headlamp covers   ::)
But still a pretty cool clone, I'm not gonna dog-it, nicer than my charger right now

THE CHARGER PUNK

thats the kinda color combo white on orange i would like on a daytona with or w/o a vinyl top-MATT

69_500

A 318 4 speed? Was that combo even available? I thought you could get the 318 in a 3 speed manual but not a 4 speed am I wrong?

Also if it was a 4 speed car, why change it to an automatic now?

Ghoste

I believe you are correct Danny, no four speed 318's for that era.

THE CHARGER PUNK

what kinda shifter did a 3-spd manual come with? anyone got any pics? i saw 1 years ago it looked like a straight shifter with black ball i think it was in an e-body tho-MATT

69Charger500

4 Speeds were optional with E-Body 318s, but not B-Body 318s (at least not 68-70 B-Body)...

Ghoste

Wow, that's kind of interesting.  I never knew you could get them in an E-body.

hemigeno

Not that this has anything really to do with Aero cars, and I apologize for hijacking the thread further than it already has been, but...

According to the "Little White Books" (which aren't infallible by any stretch of the imagination) 4-speed transmissions were offered with 318cid engines in the following applications/years:

1963  B-body  P/N 2400872  (T-10 transmission, Polysphere 318)
1967-68  A-Body  P/N 2892042
1969  A-Body  P/N 3410608
1970  A-Body  P/N 3410681 (318 export only)
1970  E-Body  P/N 3410697
1971  E-Body  P/N 3410760
1971-4  A-Body  P/N 3410759
1973  B & E Body  P/N 3410763

That chart indicates the LA318 was only mated to a B-body 4-speed in 1973.  That info is still not the last word, but it at least agrees with what everyone is saying.  Oh - and the 3-speed could be floor-shifted from 1970 on, according to the same reference material (Sales Code D13 on the Fender Tag)

:Twocents:


69_500

But no 3 speed floor shifters for 318's in 69? Was it only the 3 speed on the column then?

I'm confused.

Yes...in 66 the base engine-trans combination was the 318 with the 3spd manual trans shifter on the column, 67 also. There was (still is) a 68 Charger up here that has the slant 6 with the 3spd manual shifter on the column. All 3 speed manual shifters came on column...none on floor...at least up to 1970..not sure about after that.

Bryan  :drive:

69_500

I once looked at a 1970 Charger that was a 225 /6 car that was a 3 on the column, that was a FM3 car. Factory FM3 car with tan interior.

Lifsgrt

Hey guys, I was driving near this car's home a few weeks ago and stopped to check it out.  The nose is held on by steel strapping that has been bent to make mounts.   There is nothing resembling Z-brackets holding the nose in place.  There is no valance between the nose and the radiator support, just a big open space.  It looks a fair amount worse in person than in the pictures.  The owner was bummed it topped out at about $30000.
