Daytona 4X4 Project

[sunroofsuperbird]

Some people have asked about pics of My daytona 4x4 project? well here is the start of it as it sits now and may be awhile before I get around to finishing it. but heres what I got so far. it is on a 78 Dodge macho wagon short bed frame with the 440 engine auto. it is starting as a 68 Charger but have a 69 tail panel and have the 70 front clip on it now.

Larry,

Either cut the comments out or cut out period (from this forum).  Why do you think that you can get away with whatever you want??

No one says you have to like sunroofsuperbird's project or concept, but either act civil or hit the road.

Do I need to make it any more plain for you??

Thanks for taking up for me geno. but he did smile  It don't bother me if someone don't like my cars. I just like them different. I catch flack all the time about my 4x4 69 R/T Charger and the 71 R/T Challenger wagon about how much they would be worth back stock. Yea May be worth more but not to me then they are just like everyone else's. and thats not for me. I am use to it.

Is there any way I can get pics of the Wagon?? I have seen it before but not a very good pics of it.  I think the chally wagon is very cool.  Is it a REAL R/T? and just out of curiosity, If it is.  How come you used a real R/T and not just a 318 car or something?   I think it is cool.  I get sick of seeing all the same old e-bodys.

You know I like your work , just dont like a Daytona turned into a 4x 4!!! It had nothing to do with your car , but I had to go !!

Hey Marty, can you post a photo of your challenger wagon again? I want to show my boss, he doesn't believe me. I used to have photos of it stored on my old computer, but they are long gone. Should be interesting to see a Daytona clone 4x4 flying down the highway at 80 mph. I can see peoples reaction now, WTH is that!? ha-ha.
Thanks Mark

i think the daytona 4x4 is a cool idea! i would do it if i had a rotted out shell with a bad frame.  better than crushing it. and that challenger wagon is so different, it's cool too.  i think it's great you take your cars and do something different with them. i am all about not being the norm.. after all they are YOUR cars.. one day i will build a 4x4 charger.. even if it's just a roller lawn ornament

It should be safe up there from fender benders :icon_smile_big:We had a 4X4 71 purple challenger ragtop intown I got pictures of it to find.On a ramcharger frame.It got terrible mileage.Hard to judge where your front end ended to the car infront of you.A chaffed your back from bouncing but was a big hit on brice road at the nats.A 4X4 repair shop bought.And used it for a while as customer loaner car.It got sold and restored ground up and is one nice regular showing winning 71 challenger convertible again.Ive seen a purple challenger station wagon at carlisle.Had a vista cruiser roof and a AMC back hatch I think

I believe this is his car.

I think there is more than one around.This is the only pic I can find at the moment.
I recall a auto trader ad for one that was in quebec( I think)at the time.

[69bronzeT5]

I believe this is his car.

I'm pretty sure thats it

[nascarxx29]

I like the concept challenger wagon and daytona 4x4.Those type builds are unique where you can express different  style talents and techniques.My girlfriend Annie 1 past easter surprised me with her unique wingcar build

And I really got bored Halloween.

I'm not a fan of the jacked up Daytona as I'm not a fan of the jacked up car thing...Then again I don't want a TRUCK that far off the ground!  I like my low CG's!  Just a little too far north of the Mason-Dixon, methinks.

Now, stretching that frame a bunch and stuffing it under that BUS would kick ASS. 



Ok the challenger--is that a clamshell wagon back?  It's amazing how integrated it looks--did you cut out the seatback/trunk area, or leave the rear for cargo only? 

[nascarxx29]

Im thinking sunroof superbird must had one of these. When he was a kid and got inspired

Yes that is my purple Challenger wagon. yes it is a real R/T SE big block car. now it had the olds vista cruiser roof added in 1974 so it was just a used car then. it is just roof part only added still has orig challenger quarters and tail panel tail lights. I added a gremlin rear hatch so you could get into the trunk area for added trunk space  . I will add a pic later tonight of it when i bought it from the guy that built it. you guys will get a kick out of it. It  was a superbird R/T challenger wagon ?  I didn't like the nose so it is gone now. But I do still have it so I can put it back on later  Yea right. The other challenger wagon believe it or not is a real R/T also 340 car just has flat hood on it now. it has been done many years also. I don't care for it as much as the back of that car has been cut off and a Monaco wagon rear clip was added just to wide for car and I don't think it fits right. I have heard it was sold a few years ago and was being restored back orig now  I would still have left it as is because it is very different and has been that way forever. at least if they change it back it will make mine 1 of 1 instead of 1 of 2 and make it worth alot more at Barrett jackson
