Mecum Auction Rare 1 of 2 1969 Dodge Hemi Daytona

By Dave Ashton

This fine 1969 Dodge Daytona is 1 of 2 known examples in F6 Spring Green/Bright Green Metallic and 1 of 70 Hemi Daytona produced in 1969 with a 425cu./425hp engine with only 21,126 miles on the clock.

The car is completely original with the engine bay never having been repainted and most of the serviceable items being simply cleaned and reinstalled over the years. The car was originally sold at Vern Holmes, Inc. in Long Beach, California and as you would expect comes with the relevant documentation such as original factory broadcast sheet and fender tag. The car has its original black vinyl seats with centre console, extra cost clock, tachometer, variable speed wipers and green door panels. The car has the A32 Super Performance Axle package and comes with a Torqueflite automatic transmission and 4.10:1 Sure Grip diff. It also sports power steering and power front disc brakes.

These beauties were only around for a year anyway, but to see one in this condition, especially with its original Hemi engine is a sight to see. It comes from the Tom Lembeck collection and is estimated to go at auction for around $900,000 to $1,100,000.
