Question about the NASCAR Cars of 1970

[smartdriver]

Hello Guys,

iam absolutly new to this Theme, althoght i always loved the Winged Warriors ? I was lucky and get my Hands on a Revell Charger Daytona. So the disaster took its course....and i buy Polarlights Mercury and Ford, got a Jo Hann Superbird and to bring something other a Chevelle and a Olds.

So my Question is , what looks the Chassis on the later 2 ? Are there good Books about this Cars or Races ?

I have the Books "F.Moriarty, Supercars: The Story of the Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird", " S.Lehto, Dodge Daytona and Plymouth Superbird" and "A.Gabbard, Nascar's Wild Years: Stock-Car Technology in the 1960s"

 

Regards from Vienna and stay safe !

Hello Harry,  I think you may have taken a wrong turn when you posted to this thread.  This is a drag racing thread and the Daytonas and Superbirds are rare beasts indeed on the drag strip and the few there are are nothing like their NASCAR brothers.   There are some fantastic modelers here that might have some answers for you but the NASCAR thread may be a better source of information.  I would however suggest you look around at some of the models here, perhaps we can lure you over to the dark side of the hobby.

Chrysler's warrantee Rep , Jack Werst ( A/K/A "Mr. 5 & 50" ) campaigned a Superbird in SS/EA .
