 Option 1 -Been thinking about making a run of Die bent Daytona trunk hinges ,  UPDATE 1/16/18,  since I only received 4 orders and to make it worth my time to drive 4 hours to get steel and pull out tooling , I need 319.00 shipped lower 48 thru pay pal invoice .
Option -2 Pair hinges matched raw steel , you trim and drill own pivot , no c- channel . 250.00 shipped lower 48

New square tube fixture formed steel Daytona / trunk hinges . Slightly thinner wall than orig but the radiused areas are nice . We have all seen some builders  attempt to make their  own the results are either kinks or the end result is a hinge that looks nothing like the original !!
The pair hinges come with brake bent C-Channel and pivot hole drilled in hinge , you must transfer the stock oem torsion ramp from the orig hinge and fabricate a stop . Shipped in acid primer

SUPERBIRD / DODGE DAYTONA CHARGER -500,  , NEW REPRODUCTION MIRROR STAINLESS STEEL A PILLAR STAINLESS STEEL ( OFTEN REFERRED TO AS WIND DEFLECTORS ) EACH PAIR ARE MADE FROM 20 GAUGE MIRROR STAINLESS AND ACTUALLY TEST FIT ON CAR TO INSURE THERE ARE NO ISSUES .SUPERBIRD SET DOES NOT HAVE HOLES ON FRONT FACE ,MOST CUSTOMERS ARE BUILDING CLONE AND PREFER MOUNTING METHOD OF DAYTONA .TOOLING HAS RECENTLY BEEN UPDATED SO THEY LOOK AND FIT VERY NICE. EACH SET WILL CAREFULLY WRAPPED AND PADDED TO INSURE THEY ARE NOT DAMAGED IN TRANSIT. 450.00 SHIPPED LOWER 48

Anybody have a 500 or Daytona clone with original A pillar trim on it?

Please consider this offer: I'll buy you a brand new set of Larry's A trim and give you $$$ for your pr. of original used trim.
Your trim would be going on the #88 Daytona.   :2thumbs:

Oh you make those too. They look nice. Now all I got to do is find someone to make a steel nose.

Hello Dayclona
I need (2) two sets of the Trunk Hinges. How long to get them to my door and how do I get you paid up?  I also need window plug and the the deck lid close out piece. I already have the A piller wind deflectors. I'm not a tire kicker...I really need pieces and hopefully you can help out!  Thanks, Steve

daytonalo

I wish, all blood sweat and tears.... you can't build and sell airplanes from a 2 car garage! Something I've been doing for 24+ years, mind you I did build the first one in a 1.5 car garage! That's it on the amphibs, now 24 years later, the green/white DJK that's my own personal ride.

Cripes, that three times the size of my bungalow!!!

(Bungalow, small rural dwelling near the Sea UK)

Actually 'my garage' is bigger than my bungalow, (don't tell the wife)... :slap:

Lol...last time i looked in the dictionary a bungalow was a single story house...full stop...location does not come into it....best suited to the over 60s...lol!


bungalow
ˈbʌŋɡələʊ/Submit
noun
a low house having only one storey or, in some cases, upper rooms set in the roof, typically with dormer windows (usually referred to as chalet bungalows).



I have to hire a unit for my Charger build..my house (also by the sea...two storeys though !) has a small single car garage which, like most people's is full of all sorts of crap...except a car!

Beautiful aircraft ! What do you think about vans r-8 ? 

birdsandbees

VANS or Murphy, the only two kit manufactures in the homebuilt industry that I have any respect for!

I've had many of both around here, but I'm a high wing kinda guy. I hate getting to destination, looking down and can only see a wing!!  :lol:

kevs1969daytona

Would you ship the Canada the trunk hinges if I pay for any shipping issues Thanks.  My body guy was going to try and fabricate them from a regular charger hinge but it sounds like a lot of work $250 saves him a lot of time.

daytonalo

Hey Larry, finally got those A-pillar covers to Speed Week 2021. They were good for 187mph on the short course right out of the trailer and ultimately to almost 231mph where I burned a piston! I am sure they will see 240+ next year after I fix my engine, get the car class correct, and make a few other changes! Thanks for building such a beautiful product!
