[tan top]

seen a picture of a daytona  with 70 sheet metal on the front , after a wreck , back in the day ! could not get the correct parts then , through the dealer ...  trying to think where i saw the picture

Im thinking it might be the IRS hemi daytona .It was on here wearing a 70 charger front clip.I recall seeing in a old newsletter about a daytona wrecked with a all 1969 charger front clip .

yeah    hmmmm  just had a flash back i'm sure it had a white vinyl top also

Larry . can we call you car the HILLBILLIE BIRD ?

Sure. And we can call my 71 Cuda the HILLBILLIE CUDA, and my other 71 Cuda the HILLBILLIE CUDA 2, and my 73 Cuda, the HILLBILLIE CUDA 3, and my 70 Cuda, the HILLBILLIE CUDA 4 and my Daytona clone, the HILLBILLIE TONA, and my 68 Roadrunner, the HILLBILLIE RUNNER. We'll find good names for the rest of my cars as we build them. The cool part is I do live on a hill so it all works out great.
Now let's start calling your project the I DON'T SEE IT EVER GETTING FINISHED TONA. 

Maybe I shouldn't throw stones. That name sort of fits my HILLBILLIE TONA.

HILLBILLIE TONA.

i kinda like it 

[hotrod98]

I hate to admit this but my funny car back in the 70's was called "Hillbilly Heaven". I can't find any pics of the car with the logos on it right now, but the hillbilly had a straw hat and had straw hangin out of his mouth. He was kind if kicked back and had a jug sitting next to him.
Kind of looked like the Jungle Jim character on JJ's funny car. JJ was my hero back then.

Bob Browns street/strip daytona here in the UK used to run with a '70 front end on it...

the back in the day picture for me sums this all up!

the nosed Allison Daytona is sooo much better looking than the winged charger.

The wing on the charger at the drag stip is just

i like the stance but loose that hokie scoope

[hotrod98]

I think the traditional six pack scoops look good on Chargers.
As for who owns these cars...I have no clue. I probably found most of these pics right here on this site. I copy everything that I think is interesting.
I have thousands of pics that I have catagorized and in some cases sub-catagorized. Great reference material. It helps a lot when I have customers that don't know exactly what they want to do their cars.

I thought long and hard about a wing on my 69 charger, but i couldn't bring myself to do it, partly because, style wise it doesn't quite work for me, the wing is too vertical against the standard d post.

Because i want a wing so much, i bought a 70 roadrunner as my next project. Thats gonna get a wing. Nothing else, just a wing (and restoring of course) The Superbird wing is laid back more and looks better against the runner roofline. But im not really a fan of the nose.

My wife tends to agree with you. She insisted that I put one of our bird wings on her 69 runner. The 70 full boogy clone comes later...according to her plan.
