I'm sorry I haven't been in
contact for a while, you still have a lot of pictures of my (now sold)
Petty Blue SuperBird on your site, and my (sold in 1997)
Hemi-Orange '70 SuperBee. I sold the SuperBee to buy the SuperBird,
and I sold the SuperBird to buy my dream car, a 1969 Charger Daytona!
I was just reading
Dane Gjesdal's story on how his Daytona broke down in front of a
museum that had a car in it just like his, here's a funny twist, I now
own the car that was in the museum! It's an R4 red, white wing, black
interior Daytona. Numbers matching 440 4bbl and automatic on the
console. It was in Wheels and Spokes Auto Museum in Hayes, KS from
'80-'97. It went through a number of dealers and brokers until I picked
it up in December of 2002.
It is absolutely rust free
everywhere. I drove it all over this past summer, and I'm having it
painted (R4 again) over this winter. I had it at the Winged Warriors
Annual meet, and the Daytona SuperBird Auto Club Annual meet this year.
Next year we're taking it to the Reunion at Talladega, and the Charger
Meet in Racine, WI, along with local shows around
Chicago. I have the build sheet and window sticker for the car as well.
I have had the dash signed by Ray Nichels, Terry Nichels, Paul
Goldsmith, and Sterling Marlin. I have pictures of each of them in the
car while signing it.
