Is this another  claim as to this daytona 1 of 3 with white interior Quote[This '69 440 Daytona is believed to be one of only maybe three to have a white interior and white tail. It was restored locally and is definitely a driver.And reminds me of the former Vern Judy daytona as seen in this post http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,52688.msg579978/topicseen.html#msg579978



.. This is the closest thing to a trailer queen that Dean owns. This '69 Daytona four-speed used to hold its class land speed record at Bonneville. It ran 202 mph with a Hemi and that on bias-ply tires. It later saw some action at Talladega and has since been restored to its original condition with a 440. Dean even has the parachute and helmet that were used on the Salt Flats

414654 is a white bucket int. I always thought the wing was white but now you have me second guessing? I also do not recall which shade of red the car is.

I have records on at least 12 cars with white interior & white stripe.  The only time I make a note of a stripe color is when it's fairly certain that the car came with that particular stripe (not what it was changed to later).  If there's any question at all, I leave the stripe color blank.  In other words, I'm pretty certain that those 12 cars were originally shipped with white interior & stripe.  Not especially rare IMHO.

I agree......... Regardless, the white interior is great.......... I love that white on white with red stripe/wing........

Vernon's Fastest official speed at the Salt Flats was just over 210 mph.   I went with him in 86 and 88.  I actually have most of the original inner nose parts off that car.  I found the original engine block years ago.  I was wondering why Chris was so hot for it.  He found the car in Michigan I think.
