Daytona colour question

[69bronzeT5]

Hey guys, I have a question. Did any Daytonas ever come in B5 Blue with white interior and a black wing and stripe?

[Troy]

More than a few B5 Daytonas:

Most probably had blue, white, or black interiors.

Here's a B5/black/black one:

And a B5/B5/white one:

Its not the colour thats making me wonder...its if any B5's had white interior with a black wing and stripe..that seems like an odd colour combo to me

[hemigeno]

The problem with that question is the difficulty in saying (with any degree of certainty) what the original stripe/wing color was.  The body & interior color are listed on the B-cast & Fender Tag, but the Daytona's stripe color is not defined.  You'd have to have some Day1 pictures of the car to "prove" what it had, and there's still the chance that it was changed by the dealership.

My guess is - and it's only a guess - is that very few odd color combinations were chosen, whether by Chrysler/Creative or the ordering dealership.  I think "as a rule", a white interior car would have been given a white stripe.  There is at least one exception I've seen, which is an F6 car, white interior and a black stripe.  That's not a car I have seen myself, so I'm relying on other people's description.  There are quite a few white interior cars in my list which do not have a stripe color listed - plus the 150-200 or so I'd like to get ANY info about...

As far as what info I have on blue cars specifically, I only list four B5/C6W cars at the moment.  Of those, I have the stripe color of only one car actually recorded - and it's white.  Incidentally, most B5 cars had C6D blue interior according to what I've seen so far, and only a few of those have black stripes.

Hope that helps answer the question...

Thanks guys.

Rather than making a new thread, I have another question. Did any Daytonas have a woodgrain dash? I assume not because I dont think they made any SE Daytonas...except for the modtop one

[A383Wing]

Yes, SE Daytona's were made....9 total I think.

Brian's right, they did make SE Daytonas.  I have seven cars specifically logged with the A47 Sales Code, out of approximately 200 entries with Fender Tag info.  There are bound to be more than these seven out there, but right now it's anybody's guess as to exactly how many were made.

i wonder if there were any B-7 daytonas cause there sure were not alot of dark blue chargers of any color made,..
i wonder why it's not a bad color by any means, yet there were a large percentage of dark green ones made..

that ugly green must have been the cheapest stuff for chrysler to buy , because they used it way to much!

I currently have only one with that color code, but there could be others.  At most, there was probably a very small percentage with that color - and I agree, it looked better than F8.  Go figure...

[69_500]

What do you have against F8 green Gene? 

[moparstuart]

What do you have against F8 green Gene? 

would look good on any hemi car LOL

Personally, I don't mind F8 - it's my wife that hates it.  I showed her an F5 and F8 car last year, and she absolutely does not want me to repaint the R/T it's original F8 color.  Of course, I mentioned that I could always shop around for another car with a color she likes a little better 

While F8's alright with me, I do like the blue colors better.

[69_500]

I was going to  say that I always thought it as your wife who was against the F8 green. Same goes for my wife, she would prefer a car in b5 blue. She doesn't like R4 red at all either though.

no dont  do that   no no noi

[69_500]

Ah no worries. I'm sure there are more people on the waiting list than just us two. So with bumping one up and one down, that still puts us what numbers 432 and 433 on the list?

that would be a great trade for you doug !!!

[69bronzeT5]

Just a question. I notice ALOT of console '69s have woodgrain on the console but no woodgrain on the dash (SE)...same go for Daytonas?

[hemigeno]

Yep,

Woodgrain applique was standard on all '69 consoles but was reserved on the dashboard for the SE's only (in '69 anyway) - and that would include the Daytona production run.  4-speed knobs were all woodgrain in '69 but the auto shift knobs were mostly chrome with some being woodgrain.
