Listed 69 Daytona for sale

I would pay more than daves asking for a original survivor car...his is not a survivor because it needs a restoration for it to even be shown.

I was sent the link to this thread and just spent the last thirty minutes reading through it.  All's I can say is that was thirty minutes I'll never get back.  I almost thought I was at Mopa...oh never mind.

Sorry to have disappointed you, John.

Sorry to have disappointed you, John. 

No worries Geno, just a whole lot of nergy being expended here for what basically really oesn't even matter.  In the end, it is what it is and if itsells. it sells.  No sense in everybody getting all worked up over it.


Oh hey, have the haters here come to their senses and accepted the new Charger for the truly awesome machine that it is?  I've had mine for just over a year and 13,000 miles and I love it as much or more than the day I bought it...and it's just a V-6 SXT!

Along the same line, I love my wife's Daytona Ram pickup. I drove it for the first time on the trip to St. Louis for the MMW last month. Man, at 90 mph, you hit the gas and it accelerates like crazy. The sound of those borlas was like music. That's the driveline that I'm putting in the Superbird clone. That should make one nice driver. Even nicer than my fuel injected cuda.

That's awesome!  Congrats on the Daytona Ram and good luck with the 5.7 Hemi for the Bird clone.  I was talking to a Oakland University professor at Las Vegas this spring about the 5.7 Hemi '66 Charger him and his students had out there and he showed me just how easy retrofitting everything for the new and far technologically superior 5.7 Hemi into an old school ride is.

I kind of got my practice in when I installed a 5.9 liter with the 4 speed od tranny out of a 95 Dodge truck into my wife's 73 cuda. I used the truck harness and kept the cruise control. Man that car is like driving a brand new car. It will burn the tires off and still get 25 mpg. I'm lucky to have Street and Performance close by. I met the guy that makes their wiring harnesses at a car show this summer and he said that when I was ready, he would make my harness so that I can keep the cruise on the 5.7 as well. I'll probably end up building him a daytona clone eventually. I've got someone that wants to buy my fresh 440-6 motor so I guess I'll end up doing the 5.7 thing to my Daytona clone. I'm starting to like this new-age high tech stuff.

That's way. way cool.  A lot of people are intimidated by technology but it can be a really awesome thing.  The one main difference in the 5.7 Hemi from the 5.9 is gonna be the drive-by-wire ETC (electronic throttle control).  Once ya get that all sorted out, put the hammer down and have some fun!

I wouldnt think a purple 71 hemi cuda convertible shell as it started life .Looking like a wheel barrow .Would be a million dollar and up car.As far as 69 daytonas go there is a limited of number of them out there and to choose from.And if you do happen to find a excellant well preserved low mile car.As mentioned Elmers D is $675.000 and has around 600 miles

My girlfriend Annie was bored yesterday. She took the shipment list and put it on a spreadsheet and found some interesting errors.
car #490 was found to be listed with an incorrect vin after matching it with the job# that was incorrect.As we just happen to first hand knowledge of that car in our area
#492 is on the list twice with 2 different vins
#131 and 154 are duplicate vins shipped to 2 different states
#17 and 364 are duplicate vins both shipped to Texas
# 64 and 470 are duplicate vins shipped to 2 different states.
#92 and 115 are blank lines.
We were only able to find 37 hemi cars on the list.
Could be human error as the original shipment list was handwritten and nearly illegible in some places.

I am now able to sit at the computer and sort the cars by state, ship # or vin. Don't I have a good girlfriend?.You can sort all kinds of variables.You can see at a glance cars with consecutive vins in some cases went to the same state.You have the vin and the shippment list corresponding number next to each other.for a quick look up.Already known fact most Canada car had the 414*** vins and seem to be alot of 610 buildates .In some cases CA cars shared the 410*** vin
