Daytona

[MoparManJim]

I was wondering what a daytona parts car with a matching motor and tranny would go for if it was all apart? I have a friend of mind looking for one, can anyone help out?

about $40,000 to $50,000

You could've had this little gem for $46,000 a few months back:

He won't need anything, his friend Mark will!

Unless you need the nose wing or fenders just tell him to buy a 69 charger.

This I refound in my town about a year ago .Guy sold it for $100.000 I was XX29L9B390014 matvching numbers 4 speed F6 green.i saw it in 87 in Philadelphia for $25K.When Frank Kopevach had it at his body shop.Then I found it in Cherry hill NJ .Guy called me looking for parts.Said he had a daytona in cherry Hill.At that time I thought I was the only one in Cherry Hill with a wing car.and I knew the car already eveb handed the guy a zeroz of the buildsheet Frank allowed me to make a copy of.Where this car is today and what condition its in ??.Maybe one of our viewers can solve this mystery.The recent past owner thought it might have gone to Ken B in IL

Without the nose, wing, and front fenders, and window plug, you wouldn't have a Daytona. You would have a Charger.

I don't know the last time I saw a "parts car" Daytona for sale. I'd say around the early 80's. Everything is considered salvageable today, well almost anything. So no real Daytona's are being considered parts cars now.

Either way I'd say around $75-90K.

[nascarxx29]

This is another F6 daytona from St Louis MO that was a 80-s car .But again $25K and was original but hurting from being outside since the 70-s.Fellow wing car owned John TPR went and sent me pictures of XX29L9B398853

And if you remember way back when Galen had the ad in MCG for project daytona from $14K .That were actually a friend Dave P saved and rescued wingcars from back in the day junkyard.Tom is restoring one of Daves old cars If it wasnt for Daves effort back in the day some of these cars wouldnt be around today

I was offered $90k for my "project" Daytona back in 2004, but I wasn't interested in selling (really glad I didn't as things turn out).  There is a #s matching 440/727 unrestored Daytona for sale right now @ $148k OBO.  As everyone knows, asking prices are just that - the real value of an item is what it sells for, but a lot of these deals are never publicized.

A little off topic, but relating to value,  my insurance company on my collector policy renewal has kicked my Daytona down from my previous agreed value of $110k (set back in 2004) to a new value of $95k.    They also raised the premium  by 12% in the process.    Aon has abandoned their collector business and turned it over to another company, ELite Modern.   Problem is, at about $5 per $1000 of agreed value, they are still quite reasonable compared to what else seems to be out there.   But I don't see any way I could replace my car for even my old value of $110k today

Why not shop around , like Grundy or the other 20 company's out there ??

Umm, I think he's done that already...

Doug, Have you checked with Grundy or Hagerty and if so what did they quote you? I really need to move the insurance on all of my musclecars to a real musclecar insurer. I worry that if I have a claim (knock on wood) with the company that I'm with now, the experience might not be that pleasant. The policies are "stated value" policies which are the best kind, but they might try to pencil their way out of paying what is owed. Stay away from "stated amount" policies altogether since they can actually determine that your car is worth much less and then pay accordingly. The "stated amount" is just the figure that they use to determine your premium, not the value of your car.

[hemigeno]

The last time I checked on rates, AON was at $4/thousand, whereas Grundy and Hagerty were both around $6/thousand.  That may have changed though, and maybe Doug (or someone else) has some more recent quotes.  My R/T's policy is coming up for renewal soon, so I should have an idea about what AON is going to do with that car's insurance.  I've heard a couple of times that AON has gotten out of the Collector Car marketplace, but they haven't changed my existing policy out just yet.

Funny how history repeats itself, lot's of these cars ended up in the boneyard because of sky high insurance costs....6 grand a year!!  I realize that we are talking about cars worth well over 100 grand, but still, that's a lot of money to watch it collect dust in the garage.

That was $6 per $1000 stated value... $150,000 stated value coverage would be $900 per year... still a lot of $$$ to watch dust!

oops, sorry.  did not see the backslash.  Funny, I pay about 900/car to insure my daily drivers her in metro NY area, so that does not seem like a horrendous deal.  But if you live somewhere where insurance is cheap, then it does not look like such a good deal.  but then again, these cars are worth more than some houses, so I suppose it's all relative

[wetfeetmi]

DKN is dead on right. $900 for his daily driver worth $30k or $900 for a collector car worth $100k. My collector car policy thru Auto-Owners allows me to drive it any time I wish(to and fro work). Many policies only allow very limited mileage(parades, weekends).  My 'Cuda is insured for $25k and costs me $500/year.

Hi NascarXX29, I am new to the forum although I have been a viewer for  awhile and really enjoy the many interesting subjects that are discussed about these great cars. I saw you post regarding the F6 Daytona vin390014 and wanted to ask if by any possibility that anyone has seen or has a copy or the real build sheet for 390013. I had seen a copy of the 014 Daytona before and for a quick second I had gotten excited, that was until I saw the four at the end. I have owned my Daytona for almost three years now and have gathered quite a bit of history on it but would still love to have the build sheet, or at least a copy of it. I have been into Mopar cars since the early 80's and had always dreamed of owning a Daytona and/or a Hemi Charger. Luckily in 2004, thanks to the help of a great friend I was able to make that dream come true. Thanks in advance and I look forward to chatting with y'all.
