Regarding 69 Daytonas using 70 Charger parts....the fenders and hood are basically early pre production 1970 Charger, 69/70 Daytona fenders differ slightly in that no marker lights were punched into the fenders, no standard light bucket or braces were ever mounted, and the lower dog leg to mount the stock 70 valance was cut off and folded up to make way for the 69 Daytona lower valance....the 69/70 Daytona hood had no leading edge crumble zones vs the std 70 Charger production hood
As far as other parts shared between the Daytona and Superbird: fiberglass outer headlight doors, steel headlight pivot frames, steel headlight buckets and assorted hardware to mount/function, the front spoilers are the same, the wing braces are the same just different trunk floor mounting plates, as mentioned the wing center section is the same profile, just different lengths 57 1/4" for the Daytona and 55 1/2" for the Superbird, the center section was just a continuous cast aluminum extrusion cut to desired length, the wing uprights are not the same between the cars....Daytona "production" pieces were later used/modified when assembling the Superbird, the Bird's nosecone Z bars are just Daytona Z bars without the Daytona front turn signal welded mounting plate , the Superbirds latch tray is just the Daytona's tray "turned" 180 degrees and the Tona's tray outboard ears trimmed off , and a few holes added for mounting to the Superbird's latchtray mounting strip/channel added to the radiator yoke, the Tona's safety latch hole plated/spot welded over, and a new hole for the hood safety latch added.....dash mounted headlight switch is the same, as is the vacuum headlight harness and vacuum pods....the A pillar stainless moldings are just Daytona A pillar pcs modified with 2 visible counter sunk screws for easier mounting on the Superbird....all other Aero body mods/components like fender scoops/rear window plugs/rear Aero glass/trim, nosecones, etc are unique to each model and share nothing with other Chrysler production cars, with the exception of the 69 only Charger 500 and the 69 Daytona sharing the same rear window plug/glass/trim and modified/shortened trunk lid and trunk hinges and A pillar Aero stainless trim, rear window package tray and headliner.....
