It can't be 50 years ago that I saw the Daytona in the showroom window of Van Ness Dodge in San Francisco. But its true. We've been through good times and bad. Unemployment, divorce, wildfire, but stayed together. July 14th. 1970, a day that actually changed my life in many ways.

Awesome!! Can't be to many original owner Daytonas left...
 
Love the older/newer picture recreation. :thumbsup:
 
Congratulations Jim, hopefully you can enjoy the car for many years to come! Does your brother still have his Daytona?
 
The glue that kept you and the car together for all these years is amazing!
Keep those fires at bay! Congrat's Jim.
 
NICE! I'd like to visit you someday.
 
Very cool.
Hope i also still have my 69 charger rt (that i just recently bought) in 50 years from now. :)
 
congrats

50 years & still org. owner, very cool
 
Congrats!! I guess since you had the car before getting married (?) you were able to keep it. Anyways, had a 66 Belvedere as my first car and had to sell it when I left for overseas in the military. I found another sedan 33 years ago and still have it. All I got to do now is get it back together!
 
Very nice! 50 years!
 
Very cool, very impressive, great car, and congrats on being able to hold on to it thru all of those years.:thumbsup::drinks:
