INTRODUCTION: This car is a true standout-even in a showroom filled with hundreds of exceptional vehicles. Originally finished in Plum Crazy with a white interior, it features one of the most desirable color combinations available. Its stance is spot-on, with perfectly matched wheels and tires, and it draws attention wherever it goes. The restoration is of exceptionally high quality throughout, and customers consistently comment on how impressive this car is.

EXTERIOR: It has been completely fitted with the Daytona aerodynamic package starting up front it has the nose cone with pop-up headlights, fender scoops, and windshield pillar shields. In back is a flush mount rear window, shortened trunk lid and of course the infamous tall spoiler. in the back. The body work is fantastic, it is absolutely straight and fits beautifully with no rust or damage. Repainted its original Plum Crazy purple which is laid out beautifully and the clear coat is polished smooth like glass. The white Daytona striping around the tail looks awesome. All of the stainless is straight and polished. The chrome sparkles! The windshield and the rear window are new. The tail panel is restored, it has a pop-up gas cap, dual mirrors and racing hood pins. Upgraded with some bright LED taillights and the headlights pop right open thanks to the electric conversion from vacuum. It is sitting on 15 inch chrome Magnum 500 wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich tires, extra wide and meaty in the back.

INTERIOR: Factory born white interior! It is sooo sharp against the Plum Crazy. The entire dash area is restored to look factory fresh, it has quartz movement in the clock. I love the sporty bucket seats with a folding center armrest cushion, it is very comfortable. The seats were given new cushions and upholstery. The door panels were replaced and there is fresh carpet on the floor. The headliner and rear shelf are unique to a Daytona, both have been replaced along with the visors.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Beautifully restored and detailed. It is a 440-375 hp with stock manifolds, valve covers, air cleaner and even date coded spark plug wires. The carb is an upgraded Edelbrock with an electric choke. All of the components look fresh and proper: alternator, horns, master cylinder, wiper motor etc. It is a factory air conditioned car, the system was rebuilt and has an upgraded compressor.The engine runs cool with a new radiator, reproduction hoses and clamps, correct shroud and fan along with an added electric fan in front. The squirters are hooked up, the battery is secured and has a disconnect. The engine bay is clean metal with a glossy purple finish, the original fender tag is attached.

TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Under the trunk lid and the jamb are painted slick. Inside is solid metal painted purple. It has reproduction weatherstrip, decals and mat. It is complete with a spare tire and both jacks; a bumper jack and a scissors jack for the front.

UNDERSIDE: It's even been restored underneath! The steering and suspension all look fresh. Frame rails are welded in front to back to help prevent body twisting. It has a factory style dual exhaust system with a crossover pipe and the chrome square tips coming out the back. The fuel system has been replaced including the tank. The brake system has been rebuilt, it has new lines, the e-brake is hooked up and it has disc in front. Looking up at the motor it is clean with a high torque starter. The Torqueflite automatic transmission is also fresh looking. A rebuilt drive shaft leads back to the 8 3/4 rear end with an aluminum center section. The underbody is all solid metal with undercoat applied in certain areas and a good portion of it painted purple.

SERVICE: We take pride in our cars and reputation. Therefore, we built a 2 million dollar, 10,000 square ft service center, and hired a team of technicians to service the essentials on every car we sell.

CONCLUSION: Open your garage and catch a glimpse of this car, and you can't help but feel proud. Drive it in public and the reaction is immediate-people stop, stare, snap photos, and shower you with compliments.
This isn't merely a car; it's a mood-lifting, confidence-building source of pure happiness.
