Big Willy Daytona

[69_500]

I wasn't aware that neither of his other cars were in existince. I know that one of them was lost, but I had always presummed that the other one was sitting around somewhere waiting to be found.

It is going to be restored? i was hoping that the new owner would leave it as it is, and continue to show it for a while.

[BigBlockSam]

 he's gonna restore it to how big willie had it .

[69_500]

Good, so it will still be recognizeable, other than just by VIN.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

be cool 2 see it restored to its condition back in the day, kinda hard tho eh? i dont think there were any pics taken of it when it towed the other daytonas-MATT

[69_500]

I believe they already established that it wasn't used to tow the other vehicles, as it has never had a tow hitch on it.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

oh my bad thought it was ,so are there any pics b4 willy sanded off all its physical appearance deciphering it as the big willy car?

[69_500]

I could be wrong on that, but I thought that had been discussed earlier in the thread. Where someone made mention of a truck that was actually used to tow the vehicles.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]

he sold it months ago found a new home and is currently being restored, anyone got any info on its status???

[BigBlockSam]

the restoration hasn't started yet . i think there are two cars being finished before they bring it over to the shop. Rene

[Moparmatty]

Surely to God it's not getting restored back to factory condition.  That would be just f@#$ing retarded!!!!!

[BigBlockSam]

it's getting restored back to what it looked like in it's racing days

[Moparmatty]

That's good to hear.

[THE CHARGER PUNK]
