Here is my new 89 daytona. It is radiant silver with t-tops, and was a t-II, 5 spd car. It will be on the recieving end of my 2.5 with forged pistons.
My car and Trevor404s van, both waiting for their new motors.

Cant wait to get that economy reading down as low as it will go
Looking good man. Can't wait to see the engine in the car. Also, what engine stand is that?
Thanks man. I dont know what engine stand it is, I just borrowed it from a buddy.
clean car
its looking good
nice work!
Nice detail work on the motor, looking good. Do yourself a favor though, ditch those factory Torx crank pully bolts now and throw some oil pan bolts in from a J-yard motor. They'll only frustrate you sometime down the road. More pics as you make progress

Nice Car, guess the canadian 89's didn't get airbags? cause my 88 has an airbag. Silver 89 has got to be rare.
Hmm, dont know about the airbag. My buddies 89 spirit es and my brothers 89 caravan dont have them either. And ya I know silver was rare for american cars so I figure its got to be really rare for the chrysler version.
That is a rare thing. Only extremely late build 88's had airbags, and I think even they were an extra cost option.
AA bodys didnt get an airbag until 90, Minivans got theirs in 91.
Love the silver paint, can't wait to see it done!

x2 , i tried to drop eng+trans with pulley on my charger once lol ...never again , now i drop the car on the engine lol , good job dude !!
It was actually pretty easy. I just had to make sure that the tranny was angled down enough to get under its mount, then I used a piece of plywood on the passenger side for the pulleys to slide down on. Still helps to have 2 people though.
