Pat's amazing modern Bullitt Charger build!
More pics!
Pat's workmanship is amazing!
The number 22 Mario Rossi Daytona stock car was the last wing car to compete in Nascar racing. Having to run a 305 cubic inch engine to be allowed to compete,due to Nascars handicapping sanctions against the aerocars in 1971. Known as the little Daytona that could,it led several laps and possibly could have won the race if it was not involved in an accident,even after the accident,this car finished seventh with driver Richard Brooks!

Looks better in white.
I believe that the green 70 Charger Daytona and the purple 70 Charger Daytona were built to be show cars like the Supercharger was,but because of the Nascar ban on the aerocars,and the new Federal crash bumper standards, the cars were sold off like Chrysler did with most of their factory show cars. Because of the new Federal crash bumper standards,Chrysler was no longer allowed to sell wing cars that were built after January 1st of 1970. My guess is that they were not as well known as other Chrysler show cars,because they did very little time on the car show circuit. The green 70 Daytona was photographed in a Dodge performance display in early 1970 with other new for 1970 high performance Dodge offerings. The display was similar to what Plymouth did with the Rapid Transit system display. Nobody was building clone Daytona's in 1970 when brand new real Daytona's were still sitting on the dealers lots. Chrysler was involved with them being built. It is highly unlikely that two shops more than 1000 miles apart would build two 70 Daytona's exactly the same without factory involvement. I believe that the same shop built both custom 70 Daytona's because the owner of the purple car purchased the car through a Maryland Dodge dealership, but picked up the car in Detroit Michigan,which is probably where the car was converted into a Daytona Charger. Supposedly their was possibly even a third 70 Daytona built as well. The pictures of the green car at Hamtramak Dodge styling studio with dealer plates on it issued to Chrysler and the Chrysler logo on the lower right corner of the picture prove factory involvement with the project. It is the only plausible explanation for them being built in late 1969.

Mopar autoshow pictures! Check out the hood paint treatment on the 69 Charger in the top picture. That never made production! I like the hood treatment that did make production better though.
