The 69 charger RT with upside down vin .Was a old friend of Mine Gary Bender with similar car he sold way back to somebody in Corning NY I recall.A 69 RT Red thought car had more options.And definately had a upside down vin

Wonder if John A. knows about the Daytona in the pic, he's from that area.
Is the Hemi from THAT Daytona??

[440mop]

Isn't it a 1970 VIN on the block?
John

John

From what he posted it appears to be. I was just going by the title in the link that said 69.

[tan top]

the way i read the ad  , not sure it is a original hemi daytona block    maybe just the block that was in a daytona at some point ,   although could be reading it wrong !as i sometimes do 

[Davtona]

John

1970-71 oil pan pictured I believe. 

[mopar_man]

Block was cast Nov. 18 , 1968 so  likely  is was installed in 69 model year .

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

He posted the VIN in the ad.... 

0A170237

'70 model from the Lynch Rd plant?

RM23ROA170237 Comes from AUG 79 memberlist Gary Lazar New City NY.He the guy who used wrecked hemi superbirds to build the hemi superbird ragtop
4 speed car with buckets as listed

[maxwellwedge]

So is the car that belongs to that Hemi dead?

[nascarxx29]

We know he had a satellite/belvedere ragtop staring point .And in the magazine story I have here some where he had used wrecked hemi superbird for parts .Pete Veight got his parts and F6 playboy daytona from him.So he might know .I talked to Gary when he was in FL selling the ragtop for $25K.It ended up going to Sweden

didnt that rag top goto sweden  or somewhere overthere with that hemi still in it  ?    
 
  one of the first bird converts maybe the first    

[nascarxx29]

Thats where it went Sweden I got one of Dougs newsletter where owner over there was checking to see if it was a legit factory built car or not

Yes, it was in a magazine over there.     It had a Hemi, but may not have been the one now being discussed. 

[moparstuart]

cant read the fine print  

[moparstuart]

so was this normal that a HEMI block could be made a year or so in advance of going into a car ?

    With such low production numbers was this the norm  ?

The way I have always heard was they only did 4-5 Hemi block casting pours over a 5 or 6 year period. So a 2 year old casting date isn't out of the question

Here's another gem they're selling...
