Right VIN, but wrong car. My car has black interior, 440, auto. The vehicle did spend most of its life in WA state, but in 1997, it was sold to a friend in PA & I bought it this past August. The car was done over some time in the early-mid (?) 1990's.  I was told that at one time in its life the car was supposed to bave been owned by a famous cartoonist & was repainted maroon to match his other car(s)

If anyone's got any info on this car, I'm all ears.

Here in Washington state it is required also. I had mine mounted and yes it looks like crap but with driving a fast, bright red, big wing car, I didn't want to give officers any reason to pay more attention to me than they might already be.

The previous owner resided in West Chester, PA.

Yes, this is Nik's car, but Nik's first Daytona was a 4 speed; red with black stripe. He aquired this car, which is an automatic in 1997. I've known Nik for 30 years & his untimely death was tragic, to say the least. I purchased the car from his widow. Perhaps we have crossed paths one time or another. Might you be, or have been, a meber of the NEHOA?

[nascarxx29]

I was in the NEHOA early -mid 80-s when Ann Hosgood with the T/A Challenger headed up the club . Niks 4 speed car prior owned Doug Mangus  XX29L9B356514.Then it went to Barry K then ended up. I believe with Duane Catlett car is now restored.About 1/2 way or more down on this link

I joined the NEHOA in either 80 or 81 & eventually became VP & then President (circa 1993-1997?)
