Lot #1369 - This is one of 503 known Dodge Charger Daytonas produced in the early summer of 1969 to be legal in time for the very first NASCAR race at Talladega, which the body style won handily. This was one of the street versions sold to the public that year. Shipped new to Brook Hurst Dodge in Garden Grove, CA, on August 25, 1969, this rare Dodge had a comprehensive rotisserie refreshing completed in 2012. It retains its original 440ci Magnum engine with a 4-barrel carburetor and dual exhaust. Behind the original engine is the correct date-coded automatic transmission. This car received the Performance Axle Package, which included a Sure-Grip equipped 3.55:1 rear for street-strip manners. It is equipped with power steering and brakes with front discs, black vinyl interior featuring bucket seats and center console, as well as a Thumbwheel solid-state radio and in-dash tachometer and clock. While Daytona’s came in all R/T colors, this version wears the popular Bright Red, which covers the unique aero nose cone, special front fender air extractors and everything else, except for the high-rise black rear wing. The final option was the extra-cost styled road wheels and red line tires, a perfect complement to the body color.
