Description for Dodge Daytona 1969

#s match real deal Daytona. Listed in the registry- car #404 of just 503 made. Has XX in vin, has build sheet and original fender tag. Has special order along the bottom of the build sheet. Original rust free metal, sold new new at Macon Dodge, GA. We have a registration showing it still lived in Georgia. Interestingly a woman named Barbara Walters owned it. In 1983 she sold it to Hal Breen in Paradise Arizona. Much more recently it... underwent a rotisserie restoration to factory specs by Steve Fox in Louisville for a high profile Mopar collector. The Daytona was the first car to break 200 mph in NASCAR racing. That was accomplished with the help of aerodynamics. A metal nose cone, flush mount rear windows, stainless windshield pillar covers and fender air extractors scoops help it slice through the air. Rear wing keeps the rear tires on the ground. In 1971 NASCAR banned "aerocars" because the were winning a stunning number of races. EXTERIOR: High quality fit and finish. The metal is amazingly clean. The factory spotwelds are still showing along the bottom 1/4 panel lips. Panels are arrow straight, they fit square and flush. Painted single stage paint like they were in 1969, the color is true. The paint is slick as glass. I did not see a flaw. The jambs are slick. The headlights open and close. Any trim- stainless, chrome, tail panel is all in excellent shape. New weatherstrips. The wheels are rare Kelsey Hayes "recall" cast wheels on redline tires. An interesting side note. Those fender scoops were an illegal modification right in plain site. According to Nascar rules the fenders could only be modified for tire clearance, so that is the reason for them being there- not so. They actually releived air pressure that caused lift. INTERIOR: Restored like new from floor to ceiling. Of course the upholstery and carpet is excellent, but also the dash area is professionally restored. The chrome bezels and knobs sparkle, lenses are crystal clear, gauges look new. Has a new dash pad, factory radio is in the proper whole, nothing's cut or broken. The headliner is new and remember it's a special headliner and rear deck because the rear window extends further back. The console's restored. Door panels are new, even the uppers are rubber not the reproduction plastic. Even the handles, armrest bases, window cranks are new. Every inch of the interior is excellent- steering wheel, mirror, glovebox, and even the seatbelts are restored. Open the door and the interior lights all work.
