Remember this daytona replica

[nascarxx29]

Where has it gone it was Bill L of the VA Tide water mopar club. He built it back in the 80-s

[daytonalo]

Looks like a Charger with a wing and nose , Not a Daytona !!!!! NO PLUG !!!!!!!!!!!!

[Magnumcharger]

Must be one of those special plugless '70 Daytonas....

[nascarxx29]

It was one of those homebuilt replicas before the vega hatchback and winged message boards was introduced.

[daytonalo]

NICE ROOF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WTF

[hemigeno]

Looks like a Charger with a wing and nose , Not a Daytona !!!!! NO PLUG !!!!!!!!!!!!

So, what DOES constitute a car being "worthy" of the name Daytona?  Do you really want to play that game? 

[pettybird]

heck--he only has another 9 hours to look a the pic and make another useless observation.

keep going!  no rallyes on daytonas either!  boo!

[bzabodyn]

...don't forget the vinyl top...

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

Found more pics of it(hence the high daytona lettering,except it looks like its wearing magnum 500s now) superbird nose cone looks like it fits a 70 charger front clip or those coronet fenders?,Looks like a cool car being orange on burnt orange, id sure as hell drive it -MATT

[daytonalo]

Are those Rocket launchers under nose OMG what a mess !!

[daytonalo]

It needs a to have a plug , no vinyl top , orig style wing and nose with operational as orig headlight doors .

Those arent rocket launchers under the nose .The guy was innovative and probably used something he had around.They look like to me handle bar mounted motorcycle turn signals .From a Yamaha or Honda is my guess

[jmanscharger]

I always thought his car looked pretty cool in this pic, are you sure he doesn't still have it?

FYI
On the TMC page Bill's Latest News:  Moving my Mopar Fleet to WI where I will retire. 11 of 22 cars moved to date.

I thought he was an Air Force mechanic-  actually 24yr Navy Officer
(from the pic he probably likes the rocket launcher look )

[daytonalo]

Is that a Superbird nose or homebuilt with cardboard or roofing tin ?? Must run cool in summer with only air opening on bottom ! Before I get yelled at , This the nicest Daytona I have ever seen !!

[Aero426]

The car has Wisconsin plates in the later pics.

[BigBlockSam]

Since when does a CLONE have to be done so well that you c`ant tell it from a real one! I would love to do a daytona clone with a 70 model.I would put a steel nose cone and wing and do it in petty blue with a red rump and have NO PLUG.Heck I don`t like going to a car show and walk around drooling over a daytona for a half an hour just to find out its a clone.I love a clone done the way the factory never offered it,color wise and so on.Done with some personal touches.clones  are not real so why go to all the trouble and expense to try to make them out to be something they are not.Just my 2 cents.

first thing i check when i look at a car...  i'm such a snob...

Since that's an F-14 Tomcat, and he said moving his fleet, maybe he's a Naval mechanic?

[daytonalo]

I feel old now that all F-14 Tomcats have been retired !!!

[Ghoste]

You and me both.  Remember when they were brand new and state of the art?  (hey, kind of like wing cars  )
