cool, but whats with the paint job?

[Ghoste]

Yep. that's the ad.

[hemigeno]

Almost looks like its missing the nosecone no?   Whats the extra stuff hanging underneath?

Just the angle it's photographed at, the nose appears absent!,I,ve seen this car around several years ago..........the "extra stuff" hanging underneath? is typical of all wingcars;.......it's the K-frame rubber seal thats been "blown" off it's C-frame clips, that's why most wingcars don't have them, they did'nt last very long after the car was driven off the dealers lot!........and the same thing happens today with the repro pcs!........................................Mike G.

Not only that, but you can't hardly change the oil filter (especially on a Power Steering-equipped car) without either being a contortionist or partially removing those rubber seals.   It was too much trouble to put them back on if you took them off, and the seals would get oil all over them (when you took the filter off) if you left them in place.   I think a lot of them got "lost".

Did Superbirds have these seals too?   Just wondered if Chrysler did the same thing with these seals as they did with the holes in the fender scoops - where they put them on the Daytona just in case NASCAR wouldn't let the track versions of the car have that feature if it wasn't on the street version too, but then took the chance with the Superbird that they could have what they wanted on the track w/o being on the street car.

What's with the paint job?  It's a friggen awesome paint job, that's what.  I love the Petty color scheme!

[General_01]

I like the paint scheme.I was wondering if the drivers side rocker has a dent in it right along the bottom. Looks like it to me. Does anyone else notice this?

[jaak]

Boy this paint job must have been done in the 70's under the influence of many shooms, lol.

[CFMopar]

When it was making the rounds in the 70's, it looked kind of cool.   I used to have acopy of that Maremont ad on the wall in my room.

This ad?

Where do i get those mufflerS? 14 % horse power!

When it was making the rounds in the 70's, it looked kind of cool.   I used to have acopy of that Maremont ad on the wall in my room.

This ad?

The "Maremont" muffler Daytona, is an original Hemi car, albeit some custom touches, last owned by Mr P. Haidman

[Ghoste]

Pete's name has come up quite a bit here lately, hasn't it?

[69_500]

Pete owned the car used in the add, yes, but I think Dave got it right when he says the first picture is of another car that was owned by a gentleman here in INdiana in the 80's. Low mileage car that was recently up for sale for $395K.

[nascarxx29]

That paint job was old school .The daytona it was on had less than 5000 original miles on it .It also had a dealer installed six pack .Prior owner in IN L Bell .Car is the first US sold daytona .It was for sale on cars online a while back for like $395.000.Back to its original R4 red

[Smoke20]

All this car needs is a big ass 43 on the side..... 

[Charger_Fan]

Seems to be smoking out of the left tailpipe too.

[Ghoste]

I agree Dan, I think we are talking about two different cars here.   But the paint schemes are pretty close and when that first pic was posted, well, it had been twenty years since I last saw that Maremont ad.   Unless of course, it's one car and belonged to two different owners one of whom changed it slightly from the first scheme?

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

As you can see the car in the muffler ad has a v-21 option done out in red and has no red side paint,has bigger mags on it, and has no antenna. While the car i posted up has small bias ply redlines on 14 inch magnum 500's and has an antenna-MATT p.s. (Both of the cars colours schemes are wicked though)

[72chargerSE]

THE MYSTERY IS SOLVED!

This car is now owned and restored by a member of our club...I have seen this car numerous times, as it was displayed at the Detroit Autorama a few years back.

Here's the link..Mike

And dual mirrors on the Maremont car which by Doc74's pic, it doesn't look like the first car has (but it's hard to tell).  Also hard to tell, but it doesn't look like the Maremont car has headrests?

[69_500]

Well the biggest differnce in the two cars is that one of them is a HEMI Daytona, and the other one is a 440 car.

[hemigeno]

Also hard to tell, but it doesn't look like the Maremont car has headrests?

If the headrests are not there, it's because they were removed or the seats changed.   All Daytonas would have been made after the 1/1/69 date when headrests became mandatory.

[72chargerSE]

All.....

I actually saw, with my very own 2 eyes, Browney's Daytona with the funky paint job. Trust me, it's the car.

[Ghoste]

Never thought of that.  They are probably there but I had the question mark because I wasn't sure.  The pic was just unclear enough that it made me wonder.

[Daytona R/T SE]

Here's another shot of what I believe is the "Maremont" Daytona, I'd love to have this photo (minus all the magazine lettering ) blown up to poster size 

[Ghoste]

It does look like the same car.  You need to pm 6Pk Runner, I think he do about anything in that field.
