Hemi 4-spd daytona on ebay

[Troy]

My opinion is this: there are only so many of these cars in existence and few that aren't rusty or wrecked (or so clean they're hidden in an airtight vault somewhere). I'm the type of person that will skip right by the nitpickers and buy the car/part out from under them. Of course, I can't afford a Daytona in any shape but I'm always willing to get the best that I can. There doesn't seem to be much to complain about on this car that can't be easily unbolted and replaced. If the guy expects more than the market will bear then he can either lower his price or keep it. It is that simple. Pointing out incorrect wheels and chrome hood hinges is hardly going to change his opinion of its worth. As the saying goes - when it's yours you can make it any way you want.

Anyone recall what Jeff Phillips daytona looked like in popular cars in the 80-s.It was a sign of the time period style.,Reminds me of Joes car.except Joe didnt go that extreme

There should be jail time for destroying a car like that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Larry, it would probably take just as much time to convert your clone back into its factory-intended configuration as it would to take that Jeff Phillips car (from 1985 and considered quite stylish then) back to original. 

Is jail time appropriate for your car's "desecration" too?      

BTW, I'm not slamming clones, only trying to make a point.  I still cannot begin to understand why you see fit to every car that was customized back when the standards were vastly different.  No, it's not my taste at all, but it's not like this car's restoration was finished yesterday using all that chrome, etc. 

Out of curiosity, what's your opinion of Mr. Angry (Mike Musto's BullRun '68 Charger)?  It's been customized too - should he be jailed?  In 20 years, a resto mod might be just as much of an oddity as Joe's Daytona is to us today.  Heck, a factory-correct restoration effort like I'm trying to do with my Daytona might be considered passe as well.  Times change, so do styles.  Give it a rest.

How about Joe Dirt.  He had a nice Daytona -

ALL I'M STATING IS THIS , THE CAR WAS FOR SALE A BLOCK FROM HOME FOR 250 K !!!!!!!! NO SHIT IT DIDN'T SELL, SIMPLY PUT IT HAS BETTER CHANCE OF SELLING IF IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE WILL CASTRO GOT A HOLD OF IT !!! THATS ALL . IF YOU SEE NO PROBLEM WITH IT , YOU SHELL OUT 250 K FOR IT !

If Will Castro got hold of it, they would have spray bombed the interior white and put DVD screens in the custom headrests.

[daytonalo]

Well its close , just different era !!!!!

[nascarxx29]

And yet the beat up Big Willie 440 daytona brought big bucks.Joes cars are not everybodys taste .You got to have one to do one .This one was off the road in 1971

[nascarxx29]

Gave Joe a call to tell him I seen his car on ebay,He said the B5 70 hemi cuda and Connie Colitta bounty hunter will probably follow

[daytonalo]

IS HE GOING TO AN OLD FOLKS HOME ??

[69_500]

Why are you going to visit him?

Not sure why someone would up and sell all of their cars, but then again that is exactly what my dad did too.

To each their own. Say what you want, but its a beautiful car. Its a daytona, its a 4 speed. And it is something I don't have. A REAL daytona. Yeah i could build one, but it still wouldn't be real.

[nascarxx29]

Not the case with Joe and his cars .But Ive seen a longtime friend of the family who had a B5 440-6 4 speed superbird.He bought in 73 .And sold it in the 90s .He wanted something different.Another friend had a B5 440 6 pack automatic superbird traveled all around and all over .Got to the point to many trophys.Done all the shows .And sold out a bought 2 vipers.Who knows there reason .My friend had his daytona since 78 .Called and told me its in Hemmings

[70charger_boy]

If I had the money I would buy that car in a second.  Who cares about that 1 milimeter dent on rear valance or orange gas tank.  I'll drive the son of a bitch just like I stole it

[daytonalo]

FOR THE BARGAIN PRICE OF 250 K IT CAN BE YOURS !!!!PAY THAT # AND THE FURRIEST THING YOU WILL RUB AGAINST WILL BE YOUR POODLE !!!!!!!!!

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that you're jealous

[Brock Samson]

let it go allready... jeeeze.. 

[daytonalo]

If I wanted a real car , I would have bought Dave's for 120k and been done with it ! I only invest in real estate and cars that will APPRECIATE ! NOT DEPRECIATE ! . My car might not be authentic , but I'm sure a properly built Hemi daytona 4 speed like mine will bring a min of 80K , and I will only have 35k in it . Larry

[69_500]

Ah so you think that a Daytona will depriciate huh? I doubt it, I hope it does, but I doubt it will.

Huge difference in a clone and a real Daytona though. Doesn't matter to me how nice a clone is, or how well it is to a real one, there are things that make it different. For one, VIN, Fender tag, and such. So no matter how nice a cloned car is, I wouldn't drop $80K for it. That is just my opinion though. NOw would I drop $250K for the one for sale now? No, but can't flog the guy for asking. People ask $150K plus for some cars that aren't worth $45K if you ask me.
