[nascarxx29]

Not sure on price Janak makes some nice ones

[BigBlockSam]

stinger sells them cheap but they are empty inside . there's no way to attach them .

[superbirdtom]

can't speak for others but janak makes some very nice ones. can't go wrong there in my opinion

[BigBlockSam]

My buddy bought janaks for his real daytona he restored and sold about 5 years ago. He said janak is not his favortie person to deal with and that they did not have the correct contour for the fender anyway.  He figures for his current clone project , if he has to work them anyway he will save some and money.

Maybe I need to go visit Janak and get a spare set for my Daytona......... He lives pretty close to me...............

I have a pair of ones by showcars.For my purpose they will be fine.
The mounting studs are moulded in but they're not symmetrical at all.

No...at least mine I got from him didn't....I also had to make attaching hardware inside mine..they were empty as well

[Daytona R/T SE]

My scoops I got from Janak fit my fenders fine, right out of the box.


The mounting holes were threaded for the hardware.

I just screwed some little studs I bought at the hardware store in there, and attached them to the fenders with some nuts....

I bought a set of Daytona fender scoops and a set of Superbird fender scoops from Mike at Dayclona. As far as I can see, his repro Superbird scoops look identical to my real Superbird scoops. Both Dayclona sets fit nice. The trick is to leave them in the molds for a few days after pouring them. That stabilizes them as they cure.

Coincidentally, I just painted the Daytona scoops this evening.

Howie has a set of Janek's and they look pretty good to me.

I hear Dayclona stuff is pretty good.I bought Janak for my SB and they are not very good.One is wider at the back than the other.Dont know if the Daytona ones are and better.But if you look close at mine they dont show all that well.Just my

If anyone wants to send me a 'glass set for templates I'll make a steel set for you in trade...and that goes for the latch tray, fender extensions, wing etc.

i have a daytona  repop steel latch tray if you would like to use it for a template

   also have real super bird fender scoops and real superbird latch tray  ?

Forgive me, but can someone explain to me what you mean by the Daytona scoops were "empty"?

I believe they mean no attaching studs.

[BigBlockSam]

I believe they mean no attaching studs.

not just studs, nothing . you have to build the material up, then you can drill the new material and put the studs in . kinda like a 3 sided bowl with nothing it

Whoops its worse than I thought.

Dayclona's scoops have the bosses just like the originals. He provides stainless studs and washered nuts. I don't think his are much if any higher in price than the other guys.
Mike makes his parts in batches. It's the only way to be profitable. If you're needing everything at once, you're out of luck but if you're not in a big hurry and you want the best, his stuff is the way to go. I've bought many of his parts for both of my clones and personally, I wouldn't have a problem using his stuff on my real bird if I needed to. I don't think most people could ever tell the difference. His parts are that nice.
I'm not trying to convert everyone to Dayclona, it's just that I've been happy with every single part so far. I own some stuff from Janek, and some of it's pretty good stuff. I think he tends to take the fiberglass in lieu of steel parts too far some times.
Janek doesn't make many of the steel parts like Dayclona and in my opinion, with many of these parts, there's no substitute for steel. 

[BigBlockSam]

Dayclona's too expensive , i could have never afforded to build my daytona paying there prices.

Stuart, thats a very generous offer thank you!

Stuart, thats a very generous offer thank you!
I do have all the superbird pieces I make in steel but no Daytona and I am getting requests for steel parts for the 'tona so just trying to help fill the void. My all steel bird kit is $10k . I would like to offer a Tona kit at the same cost.
I can also custom hand build almost anything else in steel/ aluminum too from air cleaners to quarter panels etc...
