This incredible Charger Daytona is a fully documented. 1 of 8 showpiece that's been rotisserie restored by the pros at our own RKM Performance Center.

In the 60s. Chrysler and Ford were heavily vested in the "Win on Sunday. sell on Monday" sales mentality. and Dodge's Charger 500 just wasn't getting the job done. In an attempt to one up Ford's slick and equally fast Torino. Dodge went back to the drawing board and began exploring aerodynamics. This was a first for a car company. and it eventually culminated in testing full-scale models at Lockheed Martin's North Carolina wind tunnel. Engineer's quickly realized the benefits of a wind-cutting nose. but their real epiphany came when they employed a large rear stabilizer. Not only did that 'rocket nose' and 'park bench' spoiler combination create 'zero lift' downforce. it also produced immense directional stability. permitting speeds in excess of 200 MPH. Not surprisingly. Dodge's storied Daytona won the first race it competed in and would eventually become one of the most successful NASCAR stock cars of all time.

Originally sold through Reedman Dodge in Langhorne. Pennsylvania. this rare. red Daytona features an exceptionally straight body that was perfected during a professional. rotisserie restoration. The car's rebirth began when the skilled techs at our own RKM Performance Center completely stripped its striking but faded profile all the way down to bare metal. Once that metal was married to a fresh trunk pan. its facets were sanded and lovingly massaged to a level that's much nicer than factory fodder. With those facets adequately planed. and Chrysler's intimidating ambiance fully reconstructed. a correct coat of code R6 two-stage was sealed under a bright Daytona stripe. And today. this Dodge sits as an ultra-straight. fully detailed pavement pounder that's some of the coolest. most attention-grabbing iron Detroit has ever created.

When you step back and take a look at this Charger's sinuous body. many adjectives come to mind. Wicked. Astonishing. Dreadful. Infamous. But. in reality. Chrysler spent a lot of R&D time making sure the car fit one specific descriptor: functional. Every piece of this Daytona was whittled to maximum efficiency in pursuit of one goal: lapping large race tracks at a high rate of speed. At the front of the car. a downforce-producing nose hangs sleek. flip-up headlights above a small grille. hidden parking lamps and a body-matched chin spoiler. Behind that nose. drag reducing heat extractors ride between standard hood pins and like-new glass that's bordered by straight stainless trim. At the sides of those extractors. prominent fender lines. which anchor familiar "Charger" scripts at the base of the car's large B-pillars. feature fresh wheel trim. familiar door handles and a correct Chrysler mirror. And at the back of the car. a Satin Black valence centers clear tail lights and a bright "Charger" emblem between chrome-trimmed reverse lamps. a detailed 'pit stop' fuel filler. a new chrome bumper and a giant. 24-inch wing.

Hoist the car's long hood and you'll find a correct. 440 cubic inch Magnum V8 that's authenticated by a 2536430 casting number and January (1) 20th (20). 1970 (70) casting date. At the top of that 375 horsepower monster. a correct Carter carburetor rides within a small. Organisol-coated air cleaner. At the base of that carburetor. a correct Chrysler intake hangs between correct heads and traditional. stamped steel valve covers. At the front of those valve covers. a reliable points distributor shoots spark through Chrysler Electronic Suppression cables. And at the sides of that distributor. fully restored exhaust manifolds funnel spent gases into great sounding. true-dual tail pipes. Aesthetically. this Charger's red hot engine bay is exceptionally impressive from its glossy brake booster and fresh power steering pump all the way to its big. 26-inch radiator and reproduction red cap battery. And a great combination of new and replacement parts make the car's operation both fun and reliable. with items like a correct washer tank. taut carburetor springs and fresh. Chrysler-branded hoses ensuring miles of safe travel.

Toss this B-Body in the air and you'll find a fully sorted undercarriage that's been completely restored to a factory-accurate state. Heavy duty primer protects weather-free floorpans that showcase a natural blend of carefully faded overspray. Not surprisingly. the car's rugged A833 4-speed needed very little to be rebuilt to solid. like-new condition. That stalwart gearbox sends power to a correct Dana 60 Track Pack rear end. In front of that drivetrain. gold torsion bars combine with optional power steering to make quick work of big bumps and tight curves. Behind that drivetrain. fresh shocks augment traditional leaf springs below a leak-free fuel tank. Stops come courtesy of heavy duty power drum brakes that are positioned at all four corners. Exhaust is handled by aluminized tubes. which bend around an H-shaped crossover. traditional turbo mufflers and bright stainless tips. And all that Mopar goodness rolls on familiar Magnum wheels. which twist 225/75R14 Coker Classic redlines around stainless trim rings and polished center caps.

Inside this awesome Dodge. a correct Legendary interior is clean. well-fitted and surprisingly stylish. The seats. which ride in a typical bucket/bench configuration. display no significant signs of wear. In front of those thrones. an expertly restored dash hangs rebuilt factory gauges beside a thumb-adjusted Dodge Solid State radio. At the bottom of that dash. like-new carpet anchors a familiar Hurst shifter inside a long. wood-trimmed console. At the sides of that carpet. fresh door panels hang new armrests and pliable map pockets under bright stainless trim and orange-tinged "Charger" emblems. Above those panels. old school shoulder belts frame a tight. black headliner. In front of the driver. a correct steering wheel spins a glossy black rim around a monochromatic. fratzog-branded column cover. And behind the cockpit. the car's professionally restored trunk is complete all the way down to its plaid mat. correct jack and correct spare tire.

Naturally. this phenomenal Charger features amazing provenance. Here's a chronological breakdown of the items included with its sale:

A poster child for the golden era of Detroit. the Charger Daytona stands head and shoulders above nearly every classic in terms of looks. exclusivity and performance. Few cars are as popular as they are polarizing. and that simply adds to its cache. With a smooth. era-correct powertrain. mostly-original sheetmetal and enough visual flash to stand out in a mirror factory. this awesome coupe is about as close to the ultimate muscle car as you can get!
