A little bird told me the tell all story about the playboy daytona will be out in print very soon.   Now there will really be something to talk about.
I am looking forward to the rest of the story...

Ok, got mine today.   :popcrn: :popcrn:  I am a little confused or sceptical, so they at CI modified 500+ RTs to Charger 500s and somehow the "first" Daytona winds up have to bolts on the back plug, seems a little far fetched for my head, maybe the "first Daytona", but that is odd to me, being born in 69 I clearly do not have first hand knowledge, but seen lots of parts car and salvage yard cars as the remains of mods happen in the cars youth (maybe not that many aero cars, but people to odd things), but ............ really.  Please enlighten me.........

the bolts are in the trunk rail for the wing supports not the window plug

The #88 test Daytona also had wing washers that were bolted to the trunk gutter, just like the red prototype.  

You can see the bolt heads in the photo below looking into the trunk just inboard of the wing upright.

Cool stuff! And yet my car doesn't even have wing braces....never has.....just the washers -  which are welded.

i think I read in MCG how it was alien forces which mind-melded with Creative employees to force them to not install your braces.  Somehow, the mind meld didn't work quite right, and also resulted in the workers installing a Mod Top on a different Daytona. 

Also, those workers were the 3rd and 4th shooters on the grassy knoll, and they singlehandedly faked the moon landing.

If you were smart, you'd be scheming to get the 4-gear one.

Is that one still in that current paint scheme?
I like it with the mud guards ( I know I'm not with the popular vote there, but it gives it a certain look with them)
