Here is a scan of a customers car (Joe Fischer on
the door)taken from the June 1989 issue of Musclecar Review.

Hey, that's it! I knew I had seen that pic with the name Joe Fisher on it! Thanks for posting it!

55 pages?!!!
And to think I quit reading this thread at around 10-20 pages.

Got the Daytona out of storage last Saturday and put about 100 miles on it over the weekend. I wanted to do an oil change, and discovered both my drain pans were full. I had left my driver at the storage site on the other side of town. So off to the "self help" center in the Daytona we went (also known as the Milwaukee dump). The car caused a bit of attention parked at the waste oil troughs on a busy Saturday. Pics attached.

We also later made a run to Wal Mart for some new car wash hose. The parking lot security guard chatted us up about muscle and kept an eye on the car. Here's another photo from the dump.

Doug, awesome pics! That Daytona just flat out rocks! I love the trailer hitch!

It looks a lot like this one...

Yup.

Hey, what are you doing up so late? It's about bedtime for me.

Yeah same here, just posted some pics on another thread of a really nice '70 Road Runner for another member and I think I'm gonna call it a night.

This is just an out of the blue question, but Doug I know the car was painted to match a boat way back when. but did you guys have the boat? or was it painted to match a boat of a previous owner? any pictures of the car with the boat?

Previous owner had the alleged boat. Car was painted up that way in the early 70's. I have two phone numbers. I need to make some calls and see if they are the guys who owned the car and if there are photos to back up the story. That would be unreal to see. I think the two guys were related.

Must be boat and wings cars go together.I had also heard of a boat that was rumored to have been like the past owners.The 5000 bronze mile hemi daytona from Pa.But never seen it.Though I had found a superbird in a boat storage yard alief marine and storage in the 80-s in houston texas.But didnt believe it thought guy who told me about that one and a few others in houston saw a similar looking type wing.Till I went over on sat or sun yard was closed .So I stood on my car and looked over the fence.To see a orange white interior superbird sitting .Mon I ask it was $3000.00 .Passed the car on to T Janak.Who sold it to Randy Purifoy of houston tx .Where the car is at nowadays ?.Theres only my finding picture on carsinbarns .I refer to the boat yard bird

Woohoo! 9997 views of this post! I haven't read but a couple pages, but saw the number. I am working on being the 10,000 customer. What do I win? I'll take the red and gold one with the trailer hitch, but I actually have my eye on the dark blue one with the steering wheel on the wrong side.

Yippie! I won! 10,000 views! WOOOHOOOO!...

Guess there's no way to prove it...

I am ready for my prize!

LMAO!!! You win a night out on Woodward behind the wheel of the dark blue Daytona with the steering wheel on the wrong side! Now all's ya gotta do is make it out here to Detroit to claim your prize!

Ah, now i see. I had always heard my dad talk about your car and how it was painted to match a boat, and that is also why it had a trailer hitch. But I hadn't ever seen any pictures of the car and the boat together. I have a ton of pictures of your car though from the early 80's.
Anyone have a guess on how many total post this thread will get before they lock it? I mean i haven't seen any others get over 450, and this one is well over 1,000 now.
Oh yeah, and man what kind of a prize did I get for having the 1,000 post in this thread? I think that if this thread keeps up it will have more post than John does.

Danny you got this post going on vintage wings .After 70 burning RT .Was telling me about your postings on the charger dot com board posting pictures of the red hemi 500 etc.You got on moparts with us and began sending picures to me and onebadsuperbird.Who knows how long it will go or end.Enjoy the ride

OK Danny, you get the same prize for making the 1,000th post. A night out driving in the dark blue car with the retarded steering wheel location! Dave's right though and if it hadn't been for you sending me and Dave the pictures, this thread would have never started. Let's enjoy the ride and see how many more cool wing car pics and stories we can get on here.

Well, dave, I am going to take you up on it. One of these days I will be knocking on your door. I have a goal of trailering my cuda to the nats the summer that it is finished, so you might see me then. Hopefully sooner. Been dying to drive one of those since I was a teenage kid. I'll just have to look cross-eyed to stay on the correct side of the road. I should adapt after a few blocks...
