1969 Dodge Charger Daytona is the Perfect Vehicle for Vin Diesel in Fast & Furious 6
Check out what Vin Diesel told the guys at Top Gear:
“I felt like the Daytona spoke to the character,” Diesel said. “It’s always a big process picking the cars and the casting of the car normally reflects the state of mind of our characters.”
Director Justin Lin also thought it was the perfect car for this film:
“The Daytona is a car I had been looking at for the last three Fast & Furious films but they never felt right,” Lin explained. “It did for this one.”

Instagram of the Week: Crazy Dart
This week’s pic comes via MoparSal, who took this photo Sunday at a car show at the Chrysler plant in Mississauga, Ontario. The owner told him the motor was pushing 6,000 horsepower! Um, right…
1969 Plymouth Road Runner Barn Find
This car was recently found in Nebraska. Looks like an amazing project. Under all the dust and grime is a fairly solid B7 4-speed car. They only made 1,880 Road Runner Convertibles in 1969, and only 769 of those were 4 speeds. They are still out there, folks. More pics plus video after the jump! Via Moparts
1967 Plymouth GTX Featured on Hemmings TV
I’ve always loved the 66/7 B-bodies, and the ’67 GTX is my favorite. This example was painstakingly restored by Doug Bolt of Orlando, Florida and recently featured on Hemmings TV. Check out the video after the jump!
1968 Plymouth Road Runner on eBay
I’ve featured a few high dollar trailer queens on here. Well, how about a driver that some of us might actually be able to afford? It’s hard to find a decent Road Runner under $20,000 these days but this might just be a good example. Sure it has the wrong seats, a silly butt stripe and goofy wheels. But being from Colorado it’s probably fairly rust free, and I’d love to have it. The no reserve eBay auction ends tomorrow! Lots more pics after the jump!
Update: looks like it sold for $17,101, bid up from about $15,000 early this morning.

Beautiful Spanish Gold 1969 Plymouth Road Runner Convertible on eBay
Road Runner convertibles are my favorite B-body verts. And I don’t think I’ve ever seen one in Spanish Gold before. This one is equipped with an automatic, bucket seats and a working Air Grabber. It’s not numbers matching but assuming it’s solid, I’d love it have it! More pics after the jump! And be sure to check out the auction on eBay!
Update: the RR vert got bid up to $31,100 with reserve not met!
