    Makes me miss my 78 magnum. Lots of people snub these cars but there's a ton of potential in the final B bodies. They're pretty and very comfortable. Fun fact; the cordoba was originally supposed to be a Plymouth but Chrysler thought they would be more profitable as a Chrysler.

    Nice to see the 75-79 B's get some love. In 76, there were 6007 Daytonas made, and another 5200 in 77. It was listed for the half year 78s but production is unknown.

    Lou one thing I like about your show is that you feature cars that an average guy could hope to buy. This is a great looking car with a beautiful color combination and attractive body. It doesn't have a big block , four barrel, or power windows or seats but none of this detracts from this owner's pleasure of owning and driving this classic car.
    I enjoyed this episode and was happy for the owner and the excitement he must have experienced being on your show.

    How that was even called a "Charger" (or Daytona) is a mystery ... a reflection of a rather bizarre (and disappointing) era in automotive history. Having said that, this is a gorgeous example and I'm thrilled it was kept and maintained from a historical perspective. So many of these odd cars never survived, but it's important to keep relevant examples for design context and automotive nostalgia.

    Oh, my, Lou! Even though I am generally not a MOPAR fan as my family bought a horrific (then new) 1975 Dodge Dart that was the absolute worst car ever made. We sold it after 2 years of torture with 7500 miles on it. I am not exaggerating how bad it was - possibly wrecked as there was enough visual evidence of bad welds, wrinkled sheet metal, and a distinct lean toward the side of "impact". The car was roomy though the seats were worse than wooden church pews in comfort. The steering wheel was made to remove skin from your fingers and palms. I wouldn't even consider owning a MOPAR after that fiasco.
    With that said, this car is beautiful even if it was the red-headed step child of MOPAR since it wasn't promoted by Riccardo.
    Love the color and two time paint job! The interior is very nice and I can see a very similar (though nicer finish) of a 1971 Plymouth Satellite that we owned (a great experience that led to the Dodge disaster noted above).
    I marvel that any mid 1970's MOPAR survives since the autoworkers who threw them together did so with less care than one can imagine. Quality was so hit and miss that you'd be lucky 10 times out of 100 to get a car that looked like it was built by a sighted, thinking person!
    Thanks for sharing that vehicle! I know most don't go for the 1970's (and even 1980's cars), but I remember them as a child and young adult.

    My dad's cousin bought a new '76 Cordoba, maroon with a white top, powered by the Lean Burn 400. Kept it for 15 years; he and my dad commuted together to work with it a great many times. Damn solid and reliable transportation. He finally sold it in 1991and replaced it with a new Mercury Cougar, though he had hitherto been mostly a Chrysler guy from a Chrysler family. The Cordoba was in fact still running fine, but the body was really showing its age and increasingly getting rust. He sold it to a local guy who needed a work beater, and we'd still see it running around the area for a good while after. Probably long gone now but it certainly served well.

    Hey big bro LOOOUUUU! Thanks for sending me this link, big brother. WHOOSH......WHOOSH......THWACK, THWACK!!! And my floppy sneakers fly past you and Steve there, stopping their forward momentum by hitting a couple of big oaks. Leaving me sprawled out 'n knocked out cold😵😵 in that super comfy blue buttoned puffy back seat, my limp stocking feet and calves hanging out the passenger side window as Ricardo Montalban (of Chrysler Cordoba fame) looks from heaven with a big grin and Steve ties my sneakers to the rearview mirror with whatever little laces they got 🤣😂lol! I love how you feature these obscure, rare cars, along with the icons everyone knows, Lou. I feel it's so awesome to see these cars that are lovingly kept intact as a kind of time machine. Sure it may be a "package" at this point, but it kept that name alive in a time when the "powers that be" were choking the life out of muscle cars (as they are now), you know? So maybe it's a lil' "wink, wink" but it still gets a good-natured and agreeable blue-collar, lightweight, chick crazy JV baseball guy like me to lose his sneakers (and knocks me out😵, too. Which is admittedly easy on both counts 🤣lol). Love the color, the bit of a rumble out back, how it still makes ya feel like a kid ;). Oh yes. Thanks for this big bro, JV Johnny ⚾

    Hey, Lou, You did it again !!! Finding the strangest stuff out there !!! I love it !!! As a Mopar historian, I give you credit . Ya , the strongest sales at that time, ' 75 were the Monte Carlos . And chrysler wanted a piece of that . Obviously it shows. The only thing the owner of that daytona could do, is compliment it with it's sister car . The 1975 Plymouth ROADRUNNER !!! I loved that RR . So strange of car . My brother in law owned a'75 daytona. Loved it .

    Great car!!! It may not be the car one would think of when you hear Daytona Charger, but it is a Charger Daytona. I like it!!! The paint combination looks good and with a 360 under the hood I'm sure it moves pretty hood for a car from the mid 70s and it sure did sound nice. It looks like that car would be a very comfortable cruiser and could hold it's own against other cars from that era.
    A very unique and cool car!!!

    Whether guitar related or anything, skeptical, "I dunno, man"
    Car is pretty cool.
    Heck , a friend i had in HS graduated same year as me in '75.
    First car, sorta gift ? A Cordoba. like, Huh??? He loved it.
    Nice work once again, Lou !!
    a little, btw. My Dad worked at a factory full time but also moonlighted at a friend's garage during the weekends, minor repairs and tune ups,,,,first i knew was when i was 8 in '65.
    Few years later, he's complaining about 'small controls'. Nope, smog.
    He hated them then. He just tried to make them work. Only got worse.

    My sister had a 78 Cordoba early 80s. Didn’t like ‘em back then but love the styling now. (And for some reason always come across them for sale). I didn’t realize their was a Charger built along side as 75 was the first year. But as a kid I loved the Magnum because of those headlights. I thought that was so cool for a 70s car.

    Although very rare, all us Mopar guy’s look at this car with a tear in our eyes, that the once mighty Daytona would be packaged on what was really a Cordoba by Chrysler. To me, it was the beginning of the end of a once glorious American car manufacturer. Sad to see this one Lou!

    I laughed when he said he was looking for the Wing spoiler My girlfriend later 70's had one of these with the 360-2bbl automatic console and she paid a lot to have one molded on in the darker blue of the two tone paint 😅 Oh boy it did stand out from the rest of the crowd but I preferred it without. Just didn't look natural I guess! Strange by early 78' they the "charger" was still listed as available but it said N/A on amount made. Everything else became the dodge Magnum. Great video well done 👍

    I had a 76 Charger Daytona that was very similar. Same color scheme but mine had different (polyurethane?) wheels with crushed velour powder blue 60/40 bench seat with almost all options. It wasn't a great car, I had a lot of problems with it but what I remember most was the passenger power window was always sticking and cantankerous! It was always impressive to look at though.

    I remember seeing a fair amount of Cordobas and very few Chargers back in the day. Doubt I ever saw one of these Daytonas. They were sporty, but definitely more lixurious than sporty. They did after all fall into the personal luxury car category after all. In the mid 70s only the Camaro, Firebird and Corvette were sports cars unless you put up a lot more money for a Porsche or some other expensive European car. And they were definitely a lot more money.

    This car is super rare and just an amazingly beautiful car. The only complaint that i have is that some items have been added that weren't on the original car(or window sticker) that i think detrack from the car's originality. The steering wheel, road wheels and some other bits have been changed and for me that's a deal breaker. It's not my car so do what they will. But with a car sooooo rare as this, modifying it ruins the car in my opinion.

Have few regrets in life but selling that car is one. Sold it when I graduated HS and bought a 1985 Dodge Daytona which was a total piece of crap.

Even owned 3 440 6 pack Plymouth Superbirds that all won many trophies when we would go to Superbird club rallies in 70s and 80s.
