Daytona fenders never get the regular 70 side marker cut out..Due to sidemarker relocated to lower valance
The screen and scoop have a hole in fender.Regular charger fenders won't unless modified.The bottom of fender for a daytona buts up with daytona valance special modification.I recall something on fender tab? Can't recall.Maybe also  Daytona hood pin cables on top of hood not secured to fender .Hood pins not on 70 plain charger fenders.Correct If I'm wrong .Can't think of much else

Hi B54SPEED,                  14 March 2020

We have a set of used Daytona front fenders. We took a few photos of them and will try to edit out the superfluous stuff and post them here tomorrow, hasta luego.

Best Always,

Hi Kent,                15 March 2020

Thanks for the nice post; much appreciated.

We have a lot going and have been busy. We hope we can post the photos today. We reviewed the photos taken yesterday, they look like they need a few close up shots to make them more useful.

Hi Folks,                         19 March 2020

Attached are photos of a Right Front Fender for a Daytona. It came from a totaled Daytona. Bought them in 1980 somewhere in Alabama. We have both front fenders. The left has some damage a good sheet metal person should be able to easily fix.

Best Always,

Interesting screen placement.
If you restore one and install the screen PERFECTLY centered around the hole, it's probably wrong!     :Twocents:
No two are exact.
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Thanks for the pics. Can you measure the distance of the front edge of the vent hole in the fender and the size of that hole please? Building a clone now for Bonneville 2020, thanks!

Hi, Lifsgrt,                14 May 2020

The blue tape in the photos is there for that purpose. I'll go have a look and write it on paper and then post it on this thread. It'll take a couple days.

Take care.

Thanks Hemi Chick! I'd like to see those dimensions! And thanks for your Navy service, I've bummed a ride with the Navy a few times!

HighBanks, yes Wayne Perkins still has fender zcoop screens and correct grill screens.

Thanks for confirming Wayne still has the screens.

Does anyone know if in fact all Daytonas had screens installed?  I have seen fenders without screens. Oversight by Creative on early build cars?

Thanks Dave
