This amazing 1984 Dodge Daytona Turbo was a one-owner car until January 2020 and has 5,169 original miles. It's been pampered its entire life by an obsessive-compulsive individual. Tons of original documentation and extras are included. This car was ordered on June 28, 1983, from Hallmark Dodge located in Overland Park, KS. It was ordered with a Blue Gunmetal Pearl Coat exterior and a black interior. The optional equipment included a radio-AM/FM stereo with cassette, premium speaker system and tilt steering column. The original order guide, handwritten notes and dealership order form are included. The car was delivered and inspected by the dealership on September 21, 1983.

The original Chrysler Corporation New Vehicle Preparation sheet is included. The car was retailed on September 23, 1983. All the original dealership paperwork and owner's manuals are included. This was the owner's first new car, which he cherished. In fact, his house was specially designed and built to safely store the Daytona in a climate-controlled environment. He removed the large 'Turbo' decals that were on the door. He drove it on a couple of short trips, put it away for the winter in 1983 and then drove it only a few times in 1984. He never wanted anyone to damage his first new car, so he quit driving it.

The car was stored on jack stands so the suspension wouldn't settle and the tires wouldn't develop flat spots. Since it was being stored, he installed a Direct Connection high volume oil pump so it would always have plenty of oil quickly when started. The original oil pan was replaced with a factory chrome one. An extra used oil pan is included, as the original one was misplaced. A new 1-2 synchronizer assembly was also installed for smoother shifting. During the time the car was stored, he would regularly start it and run it on the jack stands so everything would move. The exterior of this car is in showroom condition and near flawless.

It retains all the original factory Blue Gunmetal Pearl Coat paint. The paint looks great and has recently been detailed to a show-quality shine. This is a beautiful color in person, especially in the direct sunlight. Everything on the exterior is original to the car, including such items as the glass, rubber, emblems, lenses and lights. All wheels are original to the car, with the exception of one that was replaced under warranty when the car was just a few months old. All of the Goodyear Eagle GT P195-60V-R15 tires are original. The black interior of this car is also in showroom condition with no signs of wear.

The black and white cloth bucket seats have dual recliners with lumbar and thigh support for the driver. The black and white checkered cloth material is also on the door panels, which looks great. This interior was well-designed with loaded with factory standard equipment, such as power mirrors and an onboard message center. All gauges and the onboard message center are crystal-clear. Everything is in working order, including the air conditioning and radio. An extra radio is included for extra parts. The engine compartment is in beautiful original condition with no signs of oxidation. It retains all the original factory tags and stickers throughout.

The hood insulation is still in great condition and the hood light still works. The car is powered by the original 2.2-liter turbocharged inline 4-cylinder that was rated with 142hp. This engine runs and performs excellent. It's barely broken in with 5,169 miles. The engine is coupled to a 5-speed manual transmission that shifts beautifully. The undercarriage is also in beautiful original condition with no signs of wear. The painted floors are as nice as the exterior and painted engine compartment. It retains all the original factory paint marks throughout. This vehicle has recently been serviced and detailed, which is documented with an included invoice. From the MS CLASSIC CARS Collection.
