When did HLPAG get into Daytona restoration.

Being it is a original nose, I can understand somebody buying it, but how can you tell this is a original valance. Could just be a Dayclona and somebody is lying.

  I dont think those are original , no marker holes in the end ??

[nascarxx29]

Early prototypes? With no sidemarker cuts .The earliest daytona had stick on reflectors and taped headlight door openings.Wish the guy furnished more info in the description other than they sat on the shelves for years

Are those 'Bird parts?  How similar are the lower valances between 'Birds and Daytonas? 

I know the Superbird valance did not have the marker light cutouts.  Just a thought...

The top one is Superbird. Bottom one is daytona. The ebay ones appear flatter .Ive bought from Mitchells back in the day 2 NOS sets of the Superbird valances.Which are a galavanized metal looking piece

[moparstuart]

   much more surface area on the face on a superbird fender ext.  At least 1-2 inches wider on the face.

No marker holes-- maybe they are nascar or some roundy rounder parts.

I thought the Daytona lower valance was all one piece? Not 2 as in the picture.

So where these metal daytona parts ever positively indentified??

[hemigeno]

The guy that bought those valance halves called me about a week ago, and we had a long chat.  He and I came to the conclusion that they MIGHT be race Daytona parts.  More specifically, we thought that was the most likely of the possibilities due to the missing marker light recesses.  There's a very slight possibility that it was a pre-production mockup piece, since I have pictures of a prototype/mockup car which has no marker lights on its valance.  From what he was saying, this does not appear to be a reproduction part, due to how it was stamped/formed.  The weird part is that the valance is in two pieces.  He was going to look closer at the joint between the two pieces, and also take a closer look at the gauge and type of metal itself. 

I was thinking that a guy like Greg Kwiatkowski, who is (re-)building the actual #88 Daytona, could make good use of these.  Steve, the guy that bought the parts through eBay, was debating about adding the marker light recess and using them on a real Daytona.  Either way, the valance was not made to go on a regular "street" Daytona - but that does not necessarily mean it's a reproduction.

That was my original thought prototype or pre production pieces.I knew they were not superbird as they appeared .As to the contour and surface area

JohnTPR forwarded this to me . I thought that they were salvaged from a damaged whole valance.Or maybe old templates used from past engineering vendor?? Parts are in MI
