    Top Banana #759 is ready for a new home. (SOLD)


    After long thought, it's time to offer up my well-loved Daytona for sale. It took some time to get comfortable with the idea, but it comes down to the fact that it's not needed as transportation any more, there aren't any projects left I want to do, and it's simply not getting driven. There are new projects that could take shape if I found the Charger a new home, so I hope to find someone who's looking to pick up a well-built, well-loved Daytona in beautiful condition.

    It's a 2006 Top Banana Charger Daytona R/T, #759 of 4000. All factory options except for Rear-seat DVD. Just over 78k miles, and she's in fantastic shape.

    As for aftermarket work, it's a mildly-aggressive, well-put-together list that results in a comfortable cruising car that does 12.5@112 in the quarter, and 178mph on the open road.

    Engine and Exhaust:
    Comp 260 Cam
    Inertia Heads - CNC Ported, Hand-blended. 6.1L Springs, Chromoly retainers, milled .020"
    Dynatech Longtube Headers and Cats
    Corsa Cat-back Exhaust
    AirHammer SS Intake
    Shaved Manifold Trojan's writeup is HERE
    6.1L Fuel Rails
    MSD Ignition Coil Packs
    Zeitronix Wideband for Datalogging
    Diablosport Predator
    Tuning by Bob Crespo
    OBDII Emissions Compliant

    Driveline:
    Getrag 3.06 Differential swap (including axles and hubs)

    Suspension, Brakes, and Wheels:
    KWv2 shocks and springs
    Hotchkis Swaybars front and rear
    SRT Brembo Brakes
    SLP Line lock
    MSRT wheels with BT Mopar M centercaps
    Toyo Proxes 4 tires, 275-40 rear and 245-45 front.

    Exterior mods:
    Halos
    BT Mopar Hood Emblem
    Rear air diffuser

    Controls, Interior, and Miscellaneous mods:
    AMG Paddle Shifters
    BT Engine accessories and custom Catch Can
    Polyurethane Motor Mounts
    EGR Delete
    ESP Disable switch
    Manual Fan switch
    Padded console cover
    Fumoto (F106N) oil change valve

    Asking $19,500.

    Good luck with the sale! You paved the way for some of my mods with your write-ups on that car! It's obvious that everything you did was well planned and always done with care. I'd probably be rocking R/T brakes still if it weren't for you.

    Good luck with the sale Junior, and I hope it goes to one of our fine members here.

    I wish that member could be me. I'd love to, and would be honored to have that sweet 'nanner in my garage.

    I know you didn't arrive at the decision to sell easily and someone is going to get a fantastic vehicle. Having seen her go down the track as well as behind the wheel myself I can say this is a very well put together machine. I hope whoever buys it has as much fun as you have had with her. Good luck with the sale brother.

    Mike, I just heard the car sold from your other post. Sad to see that beauty go, but on the flip side, 20k+ in your pocket on a car thats paid for is one hell of a nice down payment on your next adventure. Keep us posted!

    Congrats on the sale and thank you for all the great write-ups that you and that car gave us.

    This makes me think we need to start a "Whatever happen to our fellow LXF member ???" thread/section.

    Well, the Mayans and other Soothsayers were right, the end has begun.
