that was at the 'nats last year.  he had rust holes in the roof he was filling with silicone sealer 


I loved the car, and the guys were totally cool.  He had driven it quite a while to get there.

It's the ex-police Superbird on the way to Monster Mopar.   There is a thread about it on Moparts.

Neither.   There was a story on it in MCG very recently.    It wound up at Mike Zachary's bird nest in Kentucky in the 80's.    

It had a bubble on the roof and whip antennas on the rear quarters which are now bondoed over.  

The photo is from when it was in Kentucky.

Wow, that picture of the white 'Bird at Zachary's house brought back a few memories for me for sure. That green Daytona in the picture is mine. That was neat to see. Thanks for posting.

Better photo of the Daytona.    Mark Faught sent these in to DSAC about 1986.

I got a few pics of this 'bird too. the bottom half of the Nose is non-existent, looks to have rusted and fallen off, the car has some cosmetic issues to be sure, but it WAS driven from MN to Indy! and the driver(s) were great to talk to
