I've always liked the Plymouths a little more but wow this 71 Daytona with its 472 Six Pack and Bi-wing is absolutely courageous !
The attention to detail especially the trunk.
The 5 spd pistol grip and even the louvres in the rear window is correct.
Sun roof and the split bench are a great touch.
Pam is very brave to go the mph in their own creations.
She is definitely the face for strong women and family values.
Their creations are priceless I can't even begin to imagine what it takes to take on a build project of this magnitude .
Stunning , that's the only word I can describe their creations with. The Daytona leaves me speechless.
Thanks Lou for doing these great interviews with a loving couple that has spent a lifetime together and built a couple of cars that Chrysler itself can not match.
Chrysler would be doing itself a huge favour if they hired this couple to build and promote their products.
Thanks again Lou I enjoyed this so much I have subscribed to your Chanel .
If you ever need someone to create some good copy please let me know.
Hi Gary Gibbs, Thank you for your wonderful comment, and offering to help. I appreciate it. Regarding copy, you can (like you did on this video) share and add your knowledge, that is helpful. I'd say I'm a Car Guy, however there are so many cars, that I'd be the first guy to say I'm learning from each Owner / Care Taker along the way :-), Lou
That is the coolest build ever!!! I want one.
So glad you enjoyed it :-)
Hey Lou it's me....ah man is that far-out, actually dreamed of this as a kid. If King Richard would've had this he would've destroyed the competition worse than he already did. with the right ring and pinion that car would do 300mph, glad it was you that showed it to me. thanks bub. kutgw!!!
Hey Charlotte, Happy to read you enjoy this "Dream Machine" :-) Thank you for viewing, and glad you're along for the ride, Lou
I'm seriously impressed.
Hi Mike, I think you'll like this one too. Lou czcams.com/video/9Qpb4LomCdg/video.html
i have found it !!!
two crazy cool custom muscle cars !!!
Hi A. E., Happy to see you found this video too :-) Glad you enjoy these two cars. Lou
Maaan, I love both of them. I would bet that these '71's would outperform the 1969 and '70 Daytona's and Birds --- especially the orange Superbird = lighter and smaller. No wonder Nascar made them illegal for the track.
I'm in your camp, I love them both too :-) Lou
That's a sick ride

They are a very nice couple and built some beautiful fast cars ! Great job ! 👍🇺🇸
Hi Fabien, Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Geez Lou - I gotta 'fess - these '71 B-Body 'what-ifs' make exceptionally nice looking wing cars. It'd be interesting to see how they would do in a wind tunnel compared to their '69 and '70 brethren.
Thanks for putting this up.
Hi Raynus 1, Happy to read you enjoy this one. Me too. Did you see this one too? Lou czcams.com/video/9Qpb4LomCdg/video.html

Sure did - beautiful machines. Thanks again.
I was never a big fan of the 71 B body, I was also dont know what to think of the super bird but this car just seems to work. Job well done.

Going to be sharing these videos with my wife, lol She wants to convert her V6 15' Challenger into a "Superbird" kit because of how much she loves these car.
Sounds like a cool idea, Thank you for sharing, Lou
THANKS LOU!!
YOU FIND THE COOLEST STUFF.
It's my pleasure and you're welcome :-)
Lou, I am impressed. Great job!
Thank you Rustedjunk :-) BTW, Did you see the 1971 Superbird too? Enjoy, Lou czcams.com/video/9Qpb4LomCdg/video.html

*MAGNIFICENT! I'm a Ford guy, however, you've gotta give credit where credit is due and the Chrysler Corp. of this generation accomplished some pretty amazing and impressive engineering feats in the automotive world! And they did it with 0-megabits, only the aid of good, old fashioned slide rules. Which are Baby Boomer Computers; Mechanical-Analog-Computers to be precise. Anyway, This one of a kind Dodge Charger is one AWESOME MACHINE! MEEP MEEP!*

Regardless of year or looks i would kill to have one of them
Hope you're behind the wheel of the right one for you soon.
Use to seen them being driven around LA in the 70s they looked so strange in traffic. .
Hi Jason Wilson, Cool :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I like this car! Great job by the owners. Ever come across someone making their own '71 Boss 429?
Hi Brian B, Happy to read you enjoy this build :-) Haven't seen a 71 Boss 429 yet, however if I do, you will too, Lou
great video Lou !
Hi George Felise, Thank you. I hope you see many more cars on the Channel you'll enjoy, Lou
I THINK IT LOOKS AWESOME I LIKE THE 3RD GEN. A PILLAR CHARGERS AS WELL I'M A FAN OF THE 2ND GEN. ROAD R. , GTXs too BOTH CARS VERY SHARP.
Hi Rosemarie A Cipperley, High praise for this car :-) Lou
Strange. I’ve never seen one before. That’s even stranger.❤️⭐️🚙🔥🔥🔥💨💨💨
Hi Curtis, You haven't seen one because this is a build of the "concept" of one, so this is the only one, Lou
I remember this couple in some old Mopar magazines. Don't recall seeing this car. If I'm correct they build wing cars, after Chrysler dropped the program. Kinda of what could of been, from what I've seen a lot of research goes into the projects.
Hi Al, Happy to read this couple brings back memories of the magazine you read :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Front overhang is important without the nose on the normal version, now with the nose , the front profile seems extremely heavy.

208 mph top speed? That’s more than the 1969 and 1970 models. Probably because it’s smaller therefore being more nimble.

I want one in B5 Blue, new 426 Cross Ram Hemi, side pipes, 4 speed, and a red 71 Roadrunner to match
That sounds fun :-)
NASCAR did not ban them. They put restrictions on them which effectively made them un competitive. You could have run a winged car in 71. But you would have either had to carry more weight or used an engine of 305 C.I. displacement. In the 1971 Daytona 500 Dick Brooks ran a 69 Dodge Daytona with the 305 C.I. engine. NASCAR was in a transition period and they used restrictor plates on the 427 C.I. engines running against the smaller 358 C.I. powerplants. The 427 engines were phased out by 74. NASCAR was concerned about speeds being obtained by the smaller lighter cars reaching speeds of 200 MPH and some bad crashes like the one Bobby Allison had at the 1987 Winston 500 at Talladega. His car tore down 100 feet of fencing after going air-borne. Rusty Wallace tested a car without a restrictor plate in 2004. He achieved 228 MPH on the backstretch at Talladega and a one lap average of 221 MPH. Rusty himself said no way could they run at those speeds in a pack like they do. So the reason Chrysler didn't continue with the wings cars was the fact that NASCAR made them un competitive.
Hi Dave Davis, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge. Stay tuned to the next episode coming up as I believe you'll like it :-) Lou
I had the 71 SE version with the 440 Magnum, full accessories in Tor Red, I like the concept but the louvered window didn't grab me.
Hi John, Happy to read this car brings back memories of your car :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Massive Elephant Hemi with an owner self-designed and machined "Six Pak" intake💯👍!!!
Happy to read you enjoy this car / build :-)
@@loucostabile I think your reviews and showcasing of all these fine automobiles are very informative and reminiscent💯👍!!!
Talk about a incredible experience to witness. What a beauty. I can only imagine what you could get at The Barrett Jackson for this ride.
Hi Brandon, Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) Lou

Both these cars look deadly....I think 71's look better with the mod's than the 70's
Hi Mike James, Happy to read you enjoy the designs of these cars :-) I enjoy them too, Lou
If NASCAR didn't ban wing cars, these two 71 wing cars would be damn close to legit. That's pretty frickin' cool
Hi george felise, Good news...I'll have another 1971 "Petty" car coming up in the future so stay tuned :-) Happy to read you appreciate this car.

A real one to one scale MPC Roadrunner kit. I actually have two of mpc 71 roadrunner kit where u can turn it into a copy of this car.
Hi Chris, Sounds fun! Nice :-) Lou
I like it to
Hi Brad Phillips, Nice :-) Lou
What a find ! It looks like a winner .
Hi Phillip Lopez, Glad you enjoy this winner :-) Lou
What find? I only see alot American bs amd no prove.
what a car love it
Glad you "love" this one :-)
what a couple and I don't mean the cars ....they are neat too!
Yes, a match made in car heaven, Lou
For sure !
Hahaha,I've seen picture of these before that people make. (No 71's forward were Daytona's) I've even seen these done to 71 Plymouths (there was one behind the owner of the 70 Charger in the video earlier) Definitely a masterpiece,haha: and it cost a lot of money to make them. I once saw the nose for $5000 and that was on EBay... Wow... I just could imagine what the wing would have cost... Hahaha,Thanks Again. And I'll be here... A *BIG* +1 and Thumbs Up.
So much fun to video and share this car. Glad you like it, I do to, Lou
Lou Costabile Hahaha,Yessir! Thank You.
Looks great!
Glad to read you enjoy the looks of this car :-)
Yes I have it's been restored my boss has the same car red and black arkansas
Thank you for sharing your Boss has a cool car too.
These versions look better than the originals.
Glad you enjoyed this one :-)
B bo oh hell no
They/re from here! Mass!
Hope you see the cars driving around town! That would be cool, Lou
Okay, why the double wing? The 69 Daytona didn't have enough wing for Dodge? They had to make it a biplane?
I'll guess at stability.
@@loucostabile Yeah most likely, definitely not for looks. That part looks a bit redundant, in my opinion. And it blocks the trunk which was the whole point of the original wing height.
I had a 71 Charger 500. Wish I had kept it
Hi Ray S, Thank you for sharing, and happy to read you had one. Sounds like great memories :-) Lou
That's cool but you did say Plymouth Road Runner but it really is The Plymouth Superbird
Good catch. Yep you're right.
Women don’t realize that if they treat their man right there is nothing he wouldn’t do for her.
Well said.
I'm glad Dodge didn't do a 71 - it's a bit funny looking.
It's horrendous....and that bi-wing....
Different strokes for different folks
@@AZCobraman
I think you meant its beautiful.
It's ok... Everyone makes mistakes.
No, you're mistaken, I was correct in my initial observation. ;o)
@@AZCobraman
Even though i was nice enough to let you know you were wrong about how you felt the car looks, you still don't take my advice and admit it
Thats terrible. See if i ever let you know how you see things again
Was never built right?
Was never produced by Dodge, correct.
What's the PO# again...take one in black THX Lou!:)
That is SO Funny (and I agree with you) ! Thanks for making me laugh :-)
what's under the "buddy seat" I wonder ..
Hmmm, not sure.
the white one sounds like the lower end is knocking ..
Hmmm, we'll have to look into that.

I've never understood the love for these vehicles. I know they're super rare but damn they might be the most unattractive muscle cars of that entire era.
Hi rubicon1983, Clearly this one is not for you :-( Hope you see many more cars on this CZcams Channel you'll enjoy :-) Lou
I don’t want this guy to keep doing this honestly. It’s cool but it’s just one of those things that should stay on the real charger Daytona. The 71 is just too bulky in the rear end and it sits higher too. It doesn’t match lol. Though I love the 71 chargers too it just doesn’t need it and should stay the way it was meant to be.

I did! Keep the Mopars rolling Lou.
On my desk is a Car Owner business card that I'm looking forward to videoing his cars. While waiting for the weather to cooperate in the Midwest, I believe the wait will be worth it. So as we get ready for the 2017 car shows a sample of his cars have the engines 426 & 440 :-) Also early January I'll be in Scottsdale to start the year off with many fun cars.

@@loucostabile I was just funnin with you, ya know. I am a big fan of Dodge Daytonas and Plymouth Superbirds. Stupid me passed up on an opportunity to buy an orange Superbird in the early 80's for a really low price. Bought a damn new Trans Am instead. Stupid me!
this car is not a Charger Daytona. calling this car a Charger Daytona is like calling Rachel Dolezal an African American. please dont do it.
Ok Bubbajay, This car was designed off of Chrysler plans, so why wouldn't you call it a Daytona? Lou
It is whatever they say it is and when you build your own car..... call it what you want and nobody can take it away from you !
