:eek2: ...and the trophy in the category of least restoreable wing car goes to... :o
Wonder if this is the car from a old ad I have from MCG guy in NY.Was selling a motor and trans from a wrecked daytona.Think his name was Scott and it might have beenXX29L9B402977
That will buff right out!
:cheers:
:o
On a unrelated note 402978 was discussed on here and was also a F6 green daytona .But was a bench column auto
:scratchchin: thinking about it wasn't one like that before on here .painted orange but originaly green :scratchchin: that had been wrecked years ago :popcrn:
402977 went to Cicero Dodge.
Look at the bottom of pic.
if he has the VIN and fender tag, should be an easy repair. :D
That's probably the only real Daytona I can ever afford. :smilielol:
If I had that, I'd want it in my living room on display, maybe get a few brackets & a sheet of glass to make a cool coffee table.
I can't believe people are bidding on that...what are they going to do with it? It's only worth whatever the scrap yard will give you...
On second thought, I CAN believe someone is bidding on it. People will buy anything.
Holy Smokes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o :o
People are like sheep..say the word daytona or superbird easy fixer..just needs a little bondo, sheetmetal, and new donor car and about 100k and it's a daytona that is worth saving?? :scratchchin:
Might not be the case here, but there are still people out there that think that they can get away with re-bodying a car. They just have no clue as to how many people already know the status of this car. I would love to see the look on a guys face when he's busted over a re-body. That would be priceless.
The only way that I could ever re-body something like this is if it were legal. Even then, I would have a duplicate data plate made with the word "re-body" in big letters.
Aye mate, jus ship it on down under to Oz land {Australia}, that cun be fixed after a few pints of Fosters :nana:
wow that is sad ! 4 speed car also rare rare rare
I see a rebody in its future ! ! !
Someone down the line is in for a screw job. Even if the first person is honest about the rebody, a seller down the line at one point won't be :icon_smile_blackeye:

All that is there is tags has to have rebody in its future for sure.
There are times to let them go......
I have a 69 Charger that could donate a body. :D
Before I offer to buy it can I have a carfax report on that :icon_smile_big:.
From the add looks as if you would need to stamp a radiator support yourself anyway as that is no longer there.
Let me see I do have the 69 in the shopppp :scratchchin:

Yeah, just a little paint, and good as new. :P I can't believe it's up to $5K, and it hasen't even met the reserve! Have they lost their minds??? I think someone hit it on the head that a re-body is on the way, and someone will get screwed later on down the line.
So does anyone know for sure what the VIN is on the car that is being advertised so it can be flagged for future notes? Or has anyone tried to contact the seller? I can't get the pictures to upload on Ebay currently so can't view anything except for the typed out description.

we are all guessing 402977 since it has a cicero dodge bumper sticker on the car , but that all we know for sure !
If it turns out as I expect .And its 402977 .The car sold in NY and is the #294 daytona on ship list
Might be a coincedence but car #294 which is XX29L9B402977 was shipped to Cicero Dodge NY

That thing wasn't "wrecked"...it was mangled beyond recognition
Just curious Dave, but who confirmed that it was the car being discussed? Email from seller? Or photo of the Fender tag? Photo of the dash VIN?
Bidding is over $5000 now & the reserve still isn't met. :lol:
Someone is definitely buying a VIN tag & papers since there isn't anything left to repair. The interesting part though, is that if the car is "repaired" (tags swapped) with a "donor" vehicle, how would you actually prove it wasn't repaired?
Dave's right, with the green AAR it's bookends & not a coffee table. :lol:
the reserve is $7500.. but when i asked him how much to end the auction i got $20k :o
i would like to have it in my yard as conversation, oh and also because it's the only way i'll ever be in the 1 of 503 club

Taken the fact I read it and looked into the wrecked daytonas motor and trans from the ad when it was in MCG.Which was in NY and car has a Cicero Dodge NY dealer badge on this wrecked daytona and shiplist confirms that Dealer in NY.And getting a yes reply from seller is this that car from the old ad I refered to.I never seen fender tag or any other documentation..I would tend to believe this car is the same one
Looks to melike this car was pulled from the crusher before it was completly crushed. As many of you have said before... this is about the only real daytona I could ever afford. This is crazy. I can see that the car was originally the darker shade of green with green interior. Wonder if the car originally came with a white or a black tail stripe. Sad sad sad! The AAR Cuda looks just as sad! But at least you can tell what it was from a distance.

It appears to me that there is white underneath the black stripe that you can see in the cracks. But maybe this is just the primer, but i dont think the primer would be
that white. So i will start off the guessing with White Stripe.

that 69 Daytona has got a story to tell for sure :popcrn:
I didnt even come across the 402977 vin in older75- wingcar membership records.Who knows what the story is on the car.Did it get trashed back in its day .And junked .Why would someone from back then held on to something unrestorable as this till now??

It is XX29L9B402977... bid is nearing 10K...
The last conversation-piece Daytona that sold on eBay went for $40k - the burned out & rusted hulk with the 355xxx VIN number. Guess this auction will give us a little bit of an idea where the Rebodies-Are-OK crowd pegs the price of a Daytona, right??
:rotz:
Can't believe the price of that. Then again links back to the car Gene mentioned. But if I remember at least on that car some of the parts looked like they could be salvaged. This car doesn't have a straight piece of good metal anywhere on it that I can see.
If anyone had anymore doubts .It turned out to be XX29L9B402977.Now it needs to be recorded as such condition.For down the road when it later will reappear and be reintroducded at a later time back in to the wingcar population .What about the ebay auction shows the dash serial number shown removed :popcrn: The TX Toast daytona was 355107 .The 355109 turned up on here on a response from MOPAR HEAVEN user with I got from Nascar driver owned daytona post

There wasn't much useable from the TX Toast car in my opinion, but then again I wouldn't have given 40,600 PENNIES for that hulk much less DOLLARS.... OK, yeah, maybe I'd have given $406, but that's just because I'm a softie for wing cars...

Simple, it is illegal in all 50 states. It is legal to change panels but it is harder, costs more, takes longer, and requires more skill so many people who are only in it to make a profit opt for the easy (illegal) way. Any
opinion as to what makes more sense or the semantics of what changed only really matters in front of a judge and my guess is that those arguments won't hold up.
If you rebody the car how exactly does that qualify as "brought back"? Should it be worth as much as every other Daytona when it's finished? Would you buy it knowing that it's a rebody? Sellers usually favor the rebody approach but the same guys would never buy one. It's a bit of a double standard.
This car appears to be crushed so would you also "clean" the salvage title (if it has one at all)? If so, why? To hide its history from future buyers? Isn't that how those guys making Eleanor clones got in trouble? You cannot legally register a salvaged car without a full inspection in which they'll ask for documentation for all of the parts used to rebuild it (at least in Ohio but I can check other state laws). I'd love to see the inspector's face when someone explains that they just swapped the tags over to a different body.

And then what happens to the donor cars tag? That poor Charger gave his life for another. Its like pulling organs out of a living person and letting them die in order to save a dieing person. Or in this case its taking the heart of Ted, a dieing person, and putting it in a living person Bill, and then calling Bill Ted. :eek2:

There is no reason that this car has to be restored to preserve "history". If the body tags from this car or the Texas car that was burned up were transfered to another body I'd view it as a fraud. By transferring the tags I don't see any way any owner could represent it as anything but a fake. I believe the original core of the car has to be there. I hope both of those cars get displayed as they have been found. If the tags are transfered to another car, my hope is that they meet the same fate as the Shelby 350 did in the Sports Car Market legal files this month.
There are some cars from the '70's or '80's, the Hemi Superbird that was transfered to a convertible comes to mind, that bring up questions. They may be legit and I hope the owners have pictures. I wouldn't want to be the owner of a car with the possibility of it being re-tagged again by a state because it is afoul of a state law. I really wouldn't want to be a party in a lawsuit because a car was mis-represented as to what it was.
IMHO <------------------------------------
this car is a legitimate part of history. its is one of 500ish original daytonas, and they will never make anymore 1969 daytonas period, that makes it rare+desireable. the idea that someone paid 22k for this car does not surprise me it is what the hobby has become, about the numbers. the idea that this car will most likely be rebodied however sickens me, this car could be saved by conventional means. (look at WWII aircraft they build new ones pretty much from scratch with a few original parts.) especially the idea of destroying a C500. C500's are imo one of the coolest cars mopar ever built. i understand that that rebuilding a car that bad off is not very cost effective, but in this case it should be done right or not at all, remember someone died in that car... :-\

I went back and read through all of the questions on the page, and was wondering is there a way to see who posted what questions? Or do you have to be the one selling a product to see who asked what?
Just keep track of the VIN and some pics of the wreck for the wing-car databases.
The re-body-ers can swap the tags, but they can't erase the hobby's knowledge of what really happened to that VIN. Any future buyers actually doing their research will be spared the con-job. That's all we can do.

I registered it with my '69 Charger registry. I'm sure Chris will register (or flag it) in his '69 Charger registry and I'm sure the wing car registry guys will do the same.
Except that the typical beer fueled and testosterone enraged buyer at B-J doesn't give a rats ass about registries. He just knows that if he buys the car on tv, the whole world is going to know he has a monstrously huge penis. No harm there except that it encourages somebody else to build a fake car.

Nothing except that in B-J world it too often means that it isn't really all that huge but if girls just concentrate on the big wallet then maybe, just maybe, they won't notice. :icon_smile_wink:
I had put the vin to this car when it emerged on here.As it started off as a retro ad just for the driveline way back in MCG .I have it logged again.I think I will make noted reference to it as the meteorite or spaceball daytona .Best describes it looks like it fell from space and impacted with the ground :Twocents:
It's a new PROP for the next Spaceballs movie !!!

sorry i let your cat out of the bag ! I didnt figure you really paid the $22,500 with the new kid coming !
The only car i've ever seen 'PRESERVED' in that condition was the Road Warrior's Ford Falcon after it rolled down the hill and exploded. it's kept in a private museum in outback australia.
(http://www.madmaxmovies.com/cars/madmax2/Wrecks/Wrecks1.jpg)
L-R: Leyland P76, Snake truck from MM2, Interceptor wreck from MM2.
as i said it's now saved for posterity in a 'private museum' (aka some guys shed).
There's an article about the wrecked Daytona in this months DSAC newsletter.
The guy that bought the car is going to have a hard time doing much with this one without the whole world knowing. :coolgleamA:
Would be kind of cool to own that Mad Max Falcon. That movie will be always be a classic. ;D

yeah even if that daytona was in a movie , that still wouldnt make it worth 22 k
Your probably right, my mopar guy had a customer that knew about that car for years... Never did he approach the guy about selling it, and never did he mention it to the parts guy. Later on it sold for $3,500 a few years ago... The original motor was found and brought back by another nice mopar customer. It had been separated from the car years before; that's a 1 in a million chance...
ok wow what a story, how much of the original body can be saved
Curious at the fate of the car right now...
The people I bought Disco from were selling that car - they mentioned it to me after I bought Disco. Ran off a cliff and trampled with bulldozers or something is what they told me. ::) Upper State N.Y.
They had the matching motor and trans out of it.

if lets say the firewall could be saved as well as any/ and " ALL" of the original body ie the frame rails, to be incorporated into a restoration
would this still be considered a daytona or would it constitute a rebody
as i see it with all of the clones, and the sheetmetal replacement being done around this site such as , basically entire rear clips, roof skins and the like this project would be no different
i must state that i am not advocating lying about her origins, but merly stating that this is a real daytona and should be preserved
any thoughts on this :shruggy: just my :Twocents:
maybe if she is reborn her new name should reflect something cool=, the phoenix , or "ressurection"
