A 1969 Dodge Daytona Reimagined for the Modern Era

Where Tradition Meets Technology 

In the heart of Greenville, PA, a remarkable transformation is taking place, one that captures the essence of American muscle and melds it seamlessly with cutting-edge technology. We at Drive Magazine are thrilled to introduce EXOMOD’s latest marvel: The D69 Carbon Daytona. As we celebrate our 38th year in print, it’s moments like these that remind us why the automotive world continues to captivate us.

What was once a potent 807hp Redeye Challenger Hellcat has evolved into the D69 Carbon Daytona, a widebody 1969 Dodge Daytona reincarnated in modernity. EXOMOD’s artistry takes the form of a complete carbon fiber Aero Body, enveloping the Redeye Challenger’s modern chassis. This fusion of past and present is not just a car; it’s an automotive masterpiece, aptly dubbed the ultimate RetroMod.

The D69 Carbon Daytona stands as a testament to EXOMOD’s dedication. Over 2,000 hours of meticulous craftsmanship go into each creation, ensuring that no two vehicles are alike. It starts with a brand-new Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye, stripped down to its essence, and then reborn with EXOMOD’s custom carbon fiber Aero Body. The result is a harmonious blend of tradition and technology, a car that not only roars with 807 horsepower but also boasts modern supercar reliability, comfort, and performance.

Underneath its classic exterior lies a 6.2-liter supercharged V8, Brembo Brakes, SRT Power Chiller, and a bespoke carbon fiber body that captures the Daytona’s essence. Every detail, from the sequential LED taillights to the two-tone Italian leather interior, has been carefully curated to provide a driving experience that’s as iconic as it is exhilarating.

For $395,000, you’re not just purchasing a car; you’re investing in a piece of automotive history, reimagined for the modern era. As CEO Rick Katzeff aptly puts it, “The Dodge Daytona represents raw power and aesthetics that continue to captivate enthusiasts. Building a D69 Daytona has been a dream of mine for years, and I’m thrilled that we can now offer this vehicle to our clients with modern-day performance and peace of mind.”

In the world of automotive excellence, the D69 Carbon Daytona stands tall, a beacon of innovation and craftsmanship. It’s more than a car; it’s a legacy, and we’re privileged to witness and share in its glory.
