![]() The car for today is the M2 Machine's 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. ![]()

![]() Check out Wikipeida.com to learn more on the Dodge Charger Daytona. ![]() ![]() M2 offers this neo-tribute Nascar model from their Auto Haulers line. It came on the back of a flat bed semi. The model has a plastic base and no opening parts though it does appear the hood is casted separate. Perhaps Billy K or Swifty can give us some info on the drivers that drove the Daytona in 1969. ![]()

The winged warriors have long been a favorite...especially the Dodge version. 200 mph in one of these things? That took some moxie. Dragsters at the time were just topping 200 mph in the quarter mile...try holding that speed for hours on a track! |

Nice - I like the "race used" look to the Daytona Charger. Those who drove the NASCAR Charger Daytona include: Charlie Glotzbach, Buddy Arlington, Neil Castles, Tiny Lund, Jim Vandiver, Bud Moore, Fred Lorenzen, Dave Marcus, Dick Brooks, Bobby Issac, Buddy Baker and Joe Frasson.

You would need a spotter for this for sure unless your just so far in front it wouldn't matter anyway. |

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!

I collect all winged birds in basic 1/64 scale, and once I thought I had a good collection until I saw a few posted here. They made mine look 4th rate. I've slowly added more that I discovered, and have watched new releases from GL and M2. I still am no better than 3rd rate, but my collection has improved. |
