    If I ever win the lottery I'm buying one since these cars are now selling for well over $100,000 now! I purchased a 1969 Dodge Charger in 1972 at age 17 and there was a 1969 Dodge Daytona on the lot that I wanted but my father wouldn't let me buy it since it cost more! I have kicked myself everyday for 42 years for not being able to buy the Daytona which is my ultimate dream car!

    the DAYTONA with the E86 440-375 HORSE WAS UNDERRATED BY AT LEAST 15% this car would nail you in the seat,and leave you there clear to the top of second gear,and hit high and 150 we go,i grew up in a dealership that sold these in 1969 I got to test drive them after they went thru pre delivery inspection,gas was 15cents and 105-8 octane,this car loved it,this car is exciting to drive and you're never late

    You lucky bastage! One of my favorite cars ever made, but I didn't know the Daytona's came with 440s. I thought they were all Hemis, and the super birds had the 440 option. Learn something new every day. No matter how much I love these cars, they were just bait for the Torino Talledgas, and the Cyclones.

    • @RamblinAround
      @RamblinAround  10 років тому +6

      Yeah, it is a pretty bad ass car for sure. Out of the 503 Daytona's that they built, only 70 had the Hemi. Thanks for taking a look at it.

    Back in the day we had two new Daytonas in our town. I remember one was blue. I do not know what happened to either car. I think one had a 440 and the other had a Hemi. Our local dealer had to order them as sold orders, just to get them. Seems like they both sold at full retail. I figure an originial sells for a million now. Thanks for the great quality videos!

    I saw one of these rusting down at a garage or body shop in a neighboring county. It is such a shame to see one of these go to waste. A UPS driver friend of mine knows who owns the car and he will not sell it. At least the owner should get it out of the weather. I have also seen some '70 Trans Ams and Pontiac GTO Judges in another county rusting down in a guys front yard. Thanks for your posts.

    What's the top Speed? I heard it's 200 but I don't know if that's just the Hemi.

      The top speed of a stock street Daytona like this is probably only in the 140 - 150 mph range, but that's because it's limited by gearing. The transmissions in these cars all had a 1.00 to 1 top gear and when you combine that with rear end ratios of 3.23 to 4.10, the engine will be gear limited and run out of RPM. The race cars could top 200 MPH, because they had 600+HP, taller tires, and they could rev a little over 7,000 RPM. The body on these cars is very aerodynamic though, so if you put a five or six speed manual in it and throw in a more aggressive camshaft, you could get some serious top speed out of one.

    can you get them road registered?

      Yes, they are perfectly legal street cars.
