Not sure how we got to talking about the T5 cars but yes it is the same car.

Ghoste

Okay, I get it now.  We are talking about a different car in two locations at the bottom of the thread and it has nothing to do with the one at the top?

69_500

Right. The one at the top is a completely different car.

The bottom photo is Dr. Tarr's car waiting in line to get in the back gate at Trenton NJ in mid-1970.   It is probably the same car as the Daytona, just running as a C500 here.   It didn't take too much time to swap a car back and forth.   Trenton was a 1.5 mile paved track, but when NASCAR made that northern swing, they ran several short tracks.     Hence the need to run it as a 500.   Photo by Steve Mirabelli.

And it still has part of the Coke decal.

Both of those were Chrysler Engineering owned cars like the #88 Daytona.     The Superbird was used in testing like the #88  and is the car seen in the Supercars book with the yarn tufts taped to it.  There is no evidence that Richard or Pete ever raced it.   The Superbird was given to USAC racer Norm Nelson by Chrysler in the summer of 1971 and was lettered as the Hub Chrysler Plymouth #2 car.    

The 1971 Road Runner was the development car seen in various test photos.   It has a Road Runner hood and full width front spoiler which were not used in competition.  

odcics2

1971 rules limited the front spoiler width to no wider than the frame rails, hence that odd looking spoiler on the Dick Brooks Daytona which appeared in the 1971 Daytona 500.
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

The green Hemi 500 in the last post is a car that I had a chance to look over out at the Vegas show about 5 years ago. Owner is a nice guy who bought his Hemi Daytona brand new.
