A 1969 Dodge Daytona Tribute, Wesley Motorsports and an 800hp Redeye engine! (Eps. 25) - a podcast by Hemmings

After fourteen years of road trips, track events, open road rallies and at times, performing semi-daily driver duties, the matte black 1969 Dodge Daytona tribute known as “ANGRIER” is finally going under the knife thanks to help from Wesley Motorsports in Lansing, Michigan and the good folks over at Dodge and MOPAR. 

A relatively standard build in its current form, the Daytona currently sports a 500+bhp low-deck stroker with Holley EFI, a TKO-600 5-speed manual transmission, SRT Viper brakes, custom wheels, as well as some suspension upgrades – all period mods for the time. However, it’s now 2021 and over the last decade the technology in the automotive aftermarket has evolved by leaps and bounds, thus, it’s time for an upgrade! 

On this episode of the Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ we welcome back Kevin Wesley of Wesley Motorsports to walk us through his plan to bring the Daytona into the 21^st Century in a new video series for Hemmings. We also pull a stunning (and all original) 1969 Dodge Daytona from our Hemmings classifieds and talk about why these cars were so cutting edge when released 52-years ago.
