In the video, there is a '69 Orange Daytona w/a white vinyl top and stripe. Anybody know of the car? I did have a photo of it a long time ago, but it was on my old computer which is long gone. Thanks for any info. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lxwxsFsNjq8

Heard it all before -- last time you recommended jail time.   :rotz:

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?   :shruggy:  ;)  :coolgleamA:

BTW, I'm not slamming clones, only trying to make a point.  I still cannot begin to understand why you see fit to :RantExplode: 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.

Mike came down to our house a couple weeks ago to get parts for his Charger. I can't wait to see it finished.

You have been into one type of Mopar for what? Maybe a year or two? You will NEVER get it Larry. What people did with their cars at whatever period of time will never sink in to your head. The sooner you dump your project and go back to boats or Chevy's, the better for everyone on this board. It sucks when guy's like you come on here and have no respect for the cars that guys like you are trying to build and make profit from. You slam every REAL Daytona that you look at.

Oh,  :Twocents:

As long as you know it's just you who "calls" it that way. Sounds like you need the hug bigboy. Nobody cares either way what you think from what I have read. I seriously doubt you will ever be the "Go to Guy" when it comes to restoring a Daytona.  :icon_smile_wink:

dads_69

Holy crap, this got ugly fast. Thanks for the info. at least. What my second question is for,is the color of the car. Is it a 1970 color or 1969 color orange?
Thanks...... Mark

When Del still owned that car, he drove it often to shows.  I took that picture in Bastrop, Texas... about a 250 mile drive from Arlington.

Very nice car... not a concours restoration, but much more fun IMO!

Larry, I swear the only reason you're on this board is to sell your parts.    Your only contributions are "for sale" ads, and "this car sucks" posts.     You're a talented fabricator, but you come across as a real knob online.   Just calling it as I see it.
