Mike,

What is the purpose of the windshield tabs and rear window straps?

Holds the front windshield trim on & prevents the rear glass from blowing out at high speeds

QuoteShe is looking good!  2thumbs, how often do you take her out? I know your in NY, so does she sit during the winter months?

... NEVER... sits I mean, both cars are driven all year round.



Mike, since you do drive all year round, you could make a few extra bucks if you pick up a few snow plowing accounts with that front spoiler, especially here in NY.   :D




I like it, it looks good.  :cheers:

Ah, guess the daytonas had a problem with them blowing off at high speeds?

Boy, I could have used a set of those back in the fall of '87!  OOPS!
By the way, that spoiler is 100% BADAXE!

They guys who ran that 200mph Viper powered Cuda recently blew the front window trim loose because it had no external clips.

That is one tough looking car! Where did you find the chrome for your back window...i need it! You should do a poll to see what color...it would be fun.

The exterior of that car is just too ridiculous, I like it. The flat black really suits it (although I think I would have not put on the rear stripe). The new front spoiler makes it even more hardcore, great work!

Since you're driving them year round, you could do some snowplowing with the Daytona and earn some extra cash! :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:

I got news... at 150mph that snow shovel will work wonders  :2thumbs:

I remember seeing an oval track race on TV once where one of the cars spun out. As the car was sideways & almost ready to go backwards, the front windshield blew out of the window frame & ended up 20 to 30 feet above the pavement. The forced air going into the open window on the side was strong enough to take the windshield out without any trouble. There weren't any clips or straps holding it in place. It landed somewhere in an empty section of the grandstands, people were lucky.  :o

Mike, sent you a Christmas card and my latest belt photos of achievement at Dojo. Came back as of this past weekend FYI.
BTW, very cool Daytona clone/streetracer.

Hey, you can hate the game but don't hate the player.

Are you going to do what the Nascar Daytonas did and put a cover over the rear bumper?
It just seems like the next logical step in your Daytona's evolution.

 IMO looks great Mike, though it's too pronounced and I'd darken it to balance the overall look,.. it goes with the huge assed tank in the back though pretty well.  :lol:
