New Charger Daytona

[Spiney]

I was thinking yesterday, I wonder if anyone has tried to customize a new Hemi Charger as a Daytona model with the wedge front and big wing? The Challenger would also make a good base for that.

Yep Richard Petty does here is the link.

This review is rough but in a way, spot on! I love the wheels for sure but something is "off" IMO, maybe the car is too low or the wheels need to be wider, I just can't put my finger on it. I've seen this company's handy work first hand as he brought a new Camaro up to a local Sat morning cruize in the metro Detroit area one morning but the thing was this, it wasn't a Camaro per say, it was converted to a 69' T/A and it looked goofy as hell, other than the 20" Rallye II wheels w/ redline tires, really liked that and with the above car, the retro wheels are awesome!

Honestly, how old would it get driving that car around, you'd have to move out to the desert!

I like the Challenger bird but I always loved the Super Bird and Daytona Charger. Not crazy about the front wedge, it doesn't quite look right. But from the side he got it right. The reviewer really hated it. Oh well to each his own. Thanks for the links. Spiney-Dave

I like the black one on the Petty page. Don't know why you would buy a Petty Mustang when for the same $$$ you can get a Shelby or Roush.

We went to the first cruise gathering of our Mustang club last night. Several Shelby's, Roush, Saleen, and a new Boss 302. I felt like the only one without a Blower under the hood.

I think the black one does look better, probably because its black and the fact that the wheel offset is much better. The thing with the current Challenger being converted like this is the fact that its a much shorter, taller car than the original Charger was that it was based off of. The nose and wing should atleast be in more proportions but that's just me.

As far as your Cobra being N/A, well, there's no shame in that, I bet your car was cleaner than those there:dblthumb2:

Not all of those you mentioned have artificial aspiration. Maybe it's time to get a 03-04 Cobra as a stable mate to the one you have already. Love the hell out of mine!

As for the SuperBird Challenger... not digging it. The side profile is way to high, and the arch under the nose is awkward. Nice try though.

The Petty Stang is a mess, period!
