Seems to be a very large gap between what people think these cars are worth and what they actually sell for!

Not a chance at that price!

Yep plus whatever Carlos might have had here but they’ve all gone now.

Am I right in thinking there are no real Daytonas in the UK now?

The menace had a 451 Koffel engine, one of 4 Hauser’s brought in at the time. The iron heads had serious porting with lots of epoxy work, a set still come up for sale every once in a while. The car was still around some years ago and was about to come out again until the owner fell victim to someone ...

Bit late now but you can buy a 6 Digit reg direct from the DVLA for not a lot of money compared to what you normally see them advertised for.

I’d use a 4 hole on that as well. Also make sure the holes in the spacer and indeed the gasket are the same size or bigger than the carb throttle bores or else it will act as a restricter.

That’s what I’d do. Also 4 hole spacer for a 4 hole intake for smoother airflow, on an open intake you can use either.

I did some work on one back in the 80’s, I’m tall but working under the bonnet was a real stretch as I recall. I got a puncture on the same car on a Friday afternoon on Leyton high road, O/S/R with only a bumper jack to change it, proper dangerous….

I remember driving it to the DVLA office in Romford to register it, I asked the girl if I could have a 6 digit reg and she gave me XMD 44M. Good luck with that in these faceless chat bot days.

Was that the ‘bird that Jason owned for a while, forever searching for a bench seat?

Bit more than a while, must have been about 15 years…

The Duster had sat for many years when somebody found it and made a start on sorting it out, I sold the guy some parts maybe 15 years ago I can’t remember who or where….

The yellow Duster had a 383 in it, the son of the guy that owned it then is currently looking for it. The Red Barracuda belonged to Steve and Lorraine from Edmonton.

Go on then…
