1989 Dodge Daytona Shelby 2.2 Turbo 2 5-speed, rare or not?..
I have a 1989 Dodge Daytona Shelby 2.2 Turbo 2 5-speed. I have been told by many people that it is a rare collectors item and I have also been told that it will be a collectors item. How rare is it or is it rare at all?

Nothing rare cause they built way too many of them. It will be a long time before they are worth anything. I have one of the first '83 Shelby Chargers in sivler with blue stripes 2.2 5 spd. and sunroof. It'll be in the back of the shop for a long time. :king:

It's not super rare but I would consider it "collectible" since most of these were used hard and thrown away. I would guess maybe 5k built. Someone should have the numbers on these cars but I don't know where to get the info. Maybe someone on turbododge.com or turbomopar.com could help you out.
Those cars are getting hard to find in nice condition and are starting to appreciate in value. At one time I owned 46 Shelby Dodges of all types except for an '86 GLHS. I couldn't take care of them so I sold them all off except for the 2 Shelby Dakotas I bought new and an '88 Daytona. The Daytona is the first '88 built (June '87), has the VIN ending in 00001 and 2 fender tags, one which reads C1 PILOT. It's a keeper unless someone wants to step up a little for it.

If you weren't so far away I could hook you up with parts. I am parting out an '87 Pacifica and I have a '92 I'm not sure what I'm going to do with just yet. Actually, you aren't very far away compared to some of the people I sold cars to. I've sold them as far east as Maryland and as far west as Denver, several went up north to Ohio and surrounding states. I found out rust free examples are rare up north and really in demand. I sold some down in KY and TN and one went to Texas.
I had a friend that had a salvage yard that had probably 100+ fwd Mopars. He let his son-in-law run the yard and he crushed everything. Well, he didn't crush the rare LeBaron pace car but he turned it over to cut the catalytic converter off of it.:whack: :guns: Most of the other yards are crushing the 'older' stuff also. Seems funny to refer to a fwd car as an 'older car'. :shock: Dallas missourimopar.com |
Mo E Bodyman, I might be interested in seeing your 87 Pacifica. Mopard: You can get on turbododge.com forum and find lots more info on that Shelby. I know by reading on Daytona Shelby that about 7000 of my 87 Shelby Z were made, first year for a T 2 engine in Daytona. Could not find the numbers for 89, My 87 was fun to drive

Hey all dodge,
If you're at Ft. Wood, I'm only 9 miles south of the back gate. The Pacifica is complete except I used the right door and front fender off of it recently. It's a T-1, auto, with 4 wheel disc brakes. I do have pics of it I can email to you. Just email me at dallas(at)missourimopar.com and I can return them to you. Thanks, Dallas missourimopar.com |
I'll be back up there tonight, take a look tommorow or Thurs, if that works for you? Are you on the west side of I-44, with the Mopar banner up? I tried the address, but not sure if the computer or myself didn't screw it up. Sucks without R&R Salvage in Aroura, Tom

Tom,
I'm south of the Fort (and I-44) on Hwy. 17, just south of the 17 and 32 Junction. I'm about 28 miles south of the Buckhorn exit at I-44. If you come through the Fort and out the 'back' exit onto Hwy AW, then to 17, I'm just 9 miles from the 'back' gate. I need to make a couple of parts runs the next couple of days but I can work with your schedule if you can give me a call to set up a time. My shop # is 417-458-4847. I generally get there around 10 or so. If you want to call early my home # is 417-458-3342. I don't have a computer at the shop. Thanks, Dallas missourimopar.com BTW, the street address is 12712 Hwy. 17, Roby, MO 65557 If you use MapQuest, it seems to goof up the directions somehow, not sure what's wrong there. |
