Any 1969 Hemi Dodge Charger Daytona will place a collector toward the pinnacle of muscle car ownership hierarchy. Noted by expert Dave Wise as a “semi-survivor,” this example hosts the original drivetrain, original interior and a single repaint to its unique factory color, with original paint still seen in the engine bay. Only 39 of the mere 70 Hemi Daytonas built are now believed to exist, and this car is one of just two known examples painted in the limited-release F6 Spring Green Metallic. Sold new at Vern Holmes, Inc. in Long Beach, California, this car is documented with an original broadcast sheet as well as the aforementioned MMC Detroit Wise inspection report.
Rare for any 426 Hemi vehicle, the car still hosts its matching-numbers 426/425 HP Hemi V-8 engine, the race-derived powerplant that became one of the most notorious releases of the American muscle car era. Dual Carter AFB 4-barrel carburetors, massive dimensions and the trademark black valve covers are here, backed by the A727 Torqueflite automatic transmission. This came as part of the car’s A32 Super Performance axle package, meaning a 4.10-geared Dana 60 SureGrip differential as well as the 26-inch radiator, maximum cooling pieces and power front disc brakes. This car also has power steering.
The Spring Green Metallic F6 paint is highlighted by a black Daytona-lettered rear wing and all the aerodynamic pieces created to win on the racetrack: nose cone with hood pins, air extractors, special rear window and chrome A-frame shields. Inside is the original black bucket seat interior. This includes the center console with wood-grain trim and chrome shifter, variable speed wipers, the simulated wood-grain steering wheel, in-dash Tic-Toc-Tac and console-based vacuum gauge. A flip-open gas cap, chrome exhaust tips, Hemi door tags and dual outside mirrors accent the exterior, and the car’s final touch are the 1969 Kelsey-Hayes “recall” road wheels wearing a set of redline tires.
Every Charger Daytona is wild, and the Hemi version is the wildest. This car’s documented origins, beautiful appearance and desirable ownership potential make this opportunity even more rare.
