Can't be too structurally bad.  The doors open and close as new.  I think it looks worse than it actually is.

No, that is not the same car.  I'll look up the thread after while where we discussed that possibility.  David Patik used to own the car on eBay, which NEVER spent time in Oklahoma (it was originally a PA car).  I think way-back-when some people jumped to the conclusion that this was the flood car because of the roof damage, etc.  That's how urban legends get started...

It traces back to Ernie P and whos name it was under in the old records.Who I talked to at carlisle.Car sold in PA he sold it to Dave Patik.And Galen ran a ad a while back in MGC for a few daytonas of Daves for 14K .Would have got you one of the 4 for sale I recall.This is how Tom in NY got his hands on it .So this car as Hemi Geno says for this reason and more in the picture details of the 2 cars.That this car was not in Kansas.Even though both have roof damage

Here are two threads where we discussed the connection (or more importantly, the lack thereof) between Tom's car and the photo from the Oklahoma flood:

So he said that you would have to trade both the HEMI car and Dana for that Daytona? Ah come on Troy its an easy HLPAG restoration isn't it? Father son project?

I'd swap my C500 for it in a heartbeat though.

Nope. He wants Dana and cash.. I'd have to sell the '68.. If I got a nice penny for it, the money left over I would try and find a nice-done Mopar like a Road Runner or XP Charger... If I make a good-penny, maybe another R/T to go with the Daytona and I would still have three Mopes.....

Dana and cash? Hmmmm, I don't know if I could resist that if he would take my C500 and cash for a Daytona. I know I'd do it, then again my wife would throw a fit, but I'd have what I want.

The amount of cash would dictate I sell the '68.. Don't have enough disposable cash laying around to keep the '68....
