I have a pic of the start of the 69 Talladega race. The tyner car qualified 9th due to lack of entries. a lot of wing cars were there, and of course one won the race, Richard Brickhouse's dodge. I just have to figure how to load up that pic to the computer....

Vinyl tops seem contrary to stock car image, yet many seem to be on the production winged cars sold (???)............... odd it was even an offered option....

It covered the multitude of bodywork sins committed at the factory to get that rear window plug in there.

All Superbirds had a black vinyl top. As said above, it was to cover the really large seams between the additional rear window "plug" that housed the concave rear window, and the C-pillars. This was a result of the extensive and time consuming body work that had to be done to blend in the 1969 Daytonas' rear plug and fastback window.

I know Mopar had to make X amount of Daytona's and Superbirds available to the public. My question is how many were made for race teams?

Found this photo today of a red, white, and blue Superbird. I immediately recalled an old HO scale slot car (Tyco) I used to have with this exact same paint scheme. Anyone know anything about this particular car, and why Tyco made a replica of it back then?

I have no idea Mike on the story behind the car...I just noticed that it looks like it could possibly be the same car with some rough years in between pics...
