Daytona Re-body

The topic is Daytona re-body. I figured that meant Daytonas that have been rebodied.  The cars I am posting are Daytonas that are rough cars and could have been rebodied cars right? The green Daytona was the one that was in the Detroit fire before it happened. If you feel this is off topic then no worries I wont post pictures. I figured people would enjoy cars that they may possibly have never seen.

Wow that is an unreal Daytona. I cant believe all these cars that were neglected! I have seen so many.

I really like this one. Check out the Charger 500 grille in the front for sale. I forgot how much it was I should have bought the grille just to have. It must have been expensive.

Here is a shot of Dan Jennings car back in probabally the 80's. This car was burned and not savable :flame:


Very interesting topic, thanks for posting.  :popcrn:

Also thanks for the nice comments on my C500.

I noticed in this picture that my old 69 Coronet R/T 440/4speed car was sitting next to the F6 Daytona. I didn't own it then, I too have a different picture of the two cars together at the same show. I also have a picture of Danny's black Daytona and the Hemi C500. I think this picture was taken at the late great Colonial Chrysler Plymouth/Fox Hills dealership on Plymouth, MI. I actually worked there for a few years back in the mid 80's. Despite a good customer rating and decent sales, they were still axed during the dealer downsizing mode. :brickwall:

Hi Steve. You have been around thats for sure I was a young guy at that show. I think I had my Lime Green Superbird at the time. I still have the trophy from the show. I remember I was kinda nervous when they wanted me to say a few words LOL. I never see Dan wonder whats up with him.

WINGR


Hi Mark, glad to see you on the forum, it's a great place to be. Yeah, we were both alot youger back then weren't we? I remember your Bird well, that was an awesome machine. I would love to see your Generals sometime, especially since you are only about 7 miles away.

I saw Danny last year at Woodward, he stopped by where we were parked for the cruise and ended up hanging out with us for a few years. He still has his cars but don't take them out too much. He was driving an unrestored 70 Charger R/T that he has had for awhile.

Take care,

WINGR/Steve

Love the Forum. I cant believe I never knew about it. I have been on movie car forums because I went a little crazy with them :brickwall: I was always into Barris cars and its cool that I got to know him. I tried to buy my Superbird from Mike Shenks dad years back but they never called and now I heard it was sold a few years back for 100k? Not sure if thats true but  believe it or not I still remember the serial number by heart after all these years.

I cant believe you saw Danny on Woodward. Its so big you can sure miss people. I heard he was selling his Daytona?Was that his red RT he owned forever? I decided I have to buy another aero car. I got the fever again LOL. It will have to be a 500. The ones with the wings are to costly. It can need work but I want matching #s. Love youre car but I have so many and money tied up. Really dont want to let anything go at the moment. You are welcome anytime I have one GL stored right now in Livonia and the other should be back in my garage in a few weeks.

Do you own some of the original Generals?
Previously owned Daytona XX29L9B423239 - f8 - white int. - power windows.

WB General Lee

Yes I own two original General lees. I bought one directly from WB with title. Only three of these in history of the Dukes of Hazzard ever came with a title. I bought a second one a few months ago. Both are 383 cars which were most of them.

Are your cars from the orig series? Or from the movie that depicted the Dukes as pot smoking idiots?

Both are from the movie. Waynes cars all have contracts and have all kinds of restrictions.

i got my WB general lee right after filming was done in Baton rouge in early 2005. it came with a title. it was the only car to ever do 3 jumps, and was featured in hot rod. it went to volo, then to a museum in Idaho or Utah, and was featured in hot rod again with the rest of the guys collection and was auctioned off again at less than i sold it for in 2005 lol.

here is a pic 2 days before i owned it. i had no idea at the time i would end up owning this car. this was taken right after the 3rd jump which i got to watch  :)
