I never thought they were as cool as the Plymouth Belvedere II that
preceded them.
I remember back in high school the local Plymouth dealer was on the way
when I walked from school to my after school job & I'd sometimes stop in
to drool over a '66 2-door, 426 Hemi, 3-speed on the floor (Hurst shifter
I think - that may be just wishful thinking, but it *was* a floor shift).

There was a production version of the Daytona — had to be to make it
legal for NASCAR — and the wing had to be high enough for the trunk lid
to open. That’s the story of legend anyway. But the car was designed in a
wind tunnel and it may well have been that the wing caught more air when
positioned high. The production versions of the Daytonas and the Plymouth
Superbird version were crudely assembled. The gaps on the nose cone didn’t
align and the pain on the rear spoiler didn’t match the body color. Now
when the obsessive original equipment collectors restore them they try to
make them less than perfect. Shot several of them that were judged at
shows over the past few years. The winning cars all were a bit off
kilter.

Quick!
Why was the rear wing so high?
No googling, that's cheating.
Drool-worthy car. Remember seeing one on the street for the first time.
Oh baby!

OK, Cotty, here's your chance! A real, honest-to-God Daytona Superbird
with an actual racing history, and a 429, is for sale. No price listed.
