Hi Natalie Shannon, Glad to read you love MOPAR :-) You've landed on the right Car Channel. If you type in the RUclips search "My Car Story with Lou Dodge" or "My Car Story with Lou Plymouth" or "My Car Story with Lou Chrysler" I think you'll see many cars you'll enjoy, Lou
Love both Wing Cars... those wings are fantastic! The Charger looks very muscley and tough, and I like the grille! The Roadrunner looks fast n smooth. I like both colors... the orange says happy and the green says go!!!! Got the best of both with these two!! I love both cars, would be happy to have them side by side! Really great vid, thank you!
Hi WickedFireFly13, "Love both Wing Cars" :-) Me too :-) "The best of both" Well said. Always a pleasure reading your comment. You're welcome. Your comments encourage me, thank you, Lou
I'm coming for the link you left me, Lou! You were right, although this video is a little old (as time flies, it is more than 6 years old) thanks to the shots you took you can see more clearly the differences between these two iconic "Winged Cars". And what better to demonstrate it than with these beautiful examples of the 1970 Plymouth Road Runner Superbird in orange and its counterpart 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona in green. Best regards, Lou!
This is one of the nicest cars that Dodge ever made. I personally like it very much. While receiving my education in the STATES , one of my best buddies used to have one. I test drive it and it is HEAVEN. THANKS LOU FOR SHARING THIS BEAUTIFUL QUEEN. APPRECIATE YOUR EFFORTS SHOWING ALL TYPES OF GREAT CARS. THANKS AND PLEASE HAVE A GREAT DAY .KIND REGARDS
Hi Hisham Elfiki, Glad you enjoyed this video and believe this is one of the nicest Dodges ever made :-) Awesome that you have Buddy that has one! Hope you have a great day too. You're welcome, Lou
Tom is an absolute Boss. Hands-down one of the best collections I’ve ever seen. Super Birds, Daytonas, Hemi Cuba’s. this guy should have a museum or at least let me come out and check it out😂😂😂😂. Amazing collection. Anybody would die to have it.
wow gorgeous cars theres some serious money sitten in that garage im sure very few people can say ..hemi daytona,hemi super bird ...have em both...lol lucky u
It reminds me of back in the day I had two buddies start to get in a heated argument on what started as a friendly debate. That is- who's hotter: Pat Benatar or Joan Jett? Before it got any worse I chimed in with "Hey! You might have a preference, but is either one really a bad choice?" ...that being said, I'll take Pat Benatar and the Daytona.
With the 4:10 and auto in the Daytona it would be quicker off the line but the Superbird would probably catch it pretty quick. I bet the Superbird has more top end if both cars are stock.
@@2010deanML Actually no. The Daytona was the faster out of the 2 by almost 10mph on the top end. That is due to the fake scoop on the Superbird 1/4 panel and the nose shape. This is according to Mopar published accounts.
bias because I own one, roadrunner all day every day! < 1969 383 all stock matching numbers car. Grandfather bought it new in 1969. awesome cars much respect for both!

Great video Lou! Really enjoyed this one!! I liked at the end when you asked Tom which one is his favorite and he said, I'm not going to tell. Watch his eyes go to the one he liked as he said that! lol It's my favorite too.
I was 5 years old when my neighbor brought home a 1969 Daytona!! His had the 383 in it with the six pack though!! I remember always lusting over his car has a kid, and he would even let me sit in it and look it all over!! Then in 1976 he sold it, by my story doesn't end there! See in the late 1980s HIS SON, who is about 12 years older than me, found his dad's car and bought it back, and had it restored to the same condition it was new!! To this day I see it at car shows all the time and the son, (who still remembers me as the little kid from next door) lets me sit in it, and look it all over!! And we share stories about the same car we both knew as kids!!!
Lou,,, Thanx for a great vid,,,,,what a treat,,, I worked in an American Spares shop called Little Wolf Auto's here in England,,,,,been in a normal Roadrunner when I went to Canada in 79,,also a Challenger,,,,and here went in an Australian Charger,,,,and sat in a replica of Petty's non winged Charger which was signed by him,,,,I only ever owned 1 dream car a 1970 GTO,,,,but relive my car stuff watching your channel,,,,big thumbs up,
Hi Irfan Khan, Glad you enjoyed this one and consider the video a "treat" Thank you for viewing, sharing, and adding to the story with your car. You're welcome, Lou
Thank's will be looking out for more of your great vids,,,also watched a great documentary about Bobby Isaac and his winged machine and when he took his car to Salt Lake,,
Late response here, but when comparing the rear of these cars, the wings are different. The Daytona's wing base is closer to the rear end of the car and is more vertical that the Superbird's wing, which has it's base farther from the end, and is more slanted.
Dunno why I remember this,but I remember when I was just a kid,one of my Dads friends had a blue Superbird that he brought by to show off to my Dad and a couple of his buddies as they sat around drinking beers.I can remember being crazy about the fin and the decals and thought it was the coolest!My dad and his buddies were looking it over and told him how nice it was,but as soon as he drove off,they all were laughing and talking about how ugly it was!Another early lesson learned through hot rods,your buddies will sometimes just tell you what you want to hear :-)
Both are sweet cars, I saw a B5 Blue Superbird with a 440 4 Barrel and 4 Speed pistol grip at a show today. The car was absolutely flawless and they only made 271 in that color and powertrain combo. I've never seen a Daytona before, they're a lot more rare than the Superbird is. The 68-70 Charger is one of my favorite muscle cars of all time though with the 68 being my absolute favorite. My dad used a have a 70 Charger and 70 Challenger. The Charger was in an accident before I was born but the Challenger was around til I was about 6. I own a 2015 Challenger Scat Pack and love it, one day a classic Charger will be sitting next to it in my garage along with a 70 Chevelle SS.

Oh man, big bro Lou!! You and big bro Tom are certainly bringing it with these 2 awwesome MOPAR beasts. Me? As a lightweight and goofy JV baseball guy, the Superbird and it's decals has my vote (I think you would agree to that lol). But are either one of these gonna have me in my stocking feet fast? What do you think Lou?! I need your big brotherly advice. Thanks man, JV Johnny
I knew a guy in 1974 to '78, he had a 1968 charger with the rear spoiler on the back. Apparently the 1st. owner wanted a "winged bird" He bought a spoiler and had it installed on his charger. The guy I knew (D. H.) bought it later. In all those years I never seen another non-winged charger have on installed, unless a tribute one.
The Superbird has several upgrades, obtained by lessons learned on the race track. Overall it's a better car. But man, that Daytona Charger looks so much cooler.

Cooling problems aside, Charger Daytona for me. I had a Hot Rod Magazine feature from '80 or so of one in blue taped to my apartment's front door. I'd see this every morning before driving my '69 383 Magnum to work.
Thanks for this comparison, guys. Great fun. Both beautiful machines. I prefer the body lines of the Daytona, but do prefer some of the other touches on the Superbird. I think the front nose cone is better on the Plymouth. I noticed the wing angle seems different, too. Cheers
To drive either one is context as to what is faster. I would love the Superbird for putting a long straight stretch of hammer down. The 69 appears maybe a little more agile.
You missed one of the most noticeable differences of the two. The wing of the Superbird is more swept back and looks much nicer in my opinion. The angles are different!

My pleasure :-) I enjoy the Superbird's and Daytona's so if you type in "My Car Story With Lou Superbird" and "My Car Story with Lou Daytona" you see some you're familiar with, and there will be a few surprises too :-)
We used to go drinking in NY state when we were 16 because the drinking age there was 18 vs Pa. bieng 21. I lived in Erie Pa. and we would go to Westfield Ny which was about 20-25 miles away. Westfield was and still is a sleeply little farming community with maybe 1500 people or so. Funny thing was they had a Dodge dealership and it had 3-4 Superbirds there for sale. Those cars sat there unsold for a couple of years and then one day they were gone. They were not a popular car by any stretch of the imagination. Of course in hindsite I wishI would have had the money to but even one but as a goofy 16 year old in 1970 I didnt know too much
They are both amazing cars. No way to be really partial. I think the Charger is a more classic, but How could a person really pick. The sound is amazing. A Hemi is beyond the engines of today. Its really impressive to hear that thing. , bn
Hi Krista Benning, I'm in your corner, I like them both too :-) Glad you enjoyed these two wonderful cars. Here is a funny one for you as I drive the green one and "Stall it"! Enjoy, Lou ruclips.net/video/1cTLyPBZG9g/видео.html
No need for a comparison like he said the 69 charger is the most iconic look at those tail lights that wide stripe. There’s a woman in a small Connecticut town that still has her all original 70 super bird in like new condition with a four-speed. They’re still out there.
Hi Robert, Happy to read your thoughts, and cool that a woman in CT has her original Superbird :-) Like this woman, enjoy! Lou ruclips.net/video/kI6Ul6f3jAI/видео.html
Both killer and both colors are really desirable especially the vitamin c orange,ive always really liked the back end (lights) of the 1968-round lights & 69's,but still love the 1970 superbirds,it really is a pity chrysler australia didnt follow chrysler u.s,.with cubic inch motor/gearbox options and design a lot more closer those iconic years..

Actually, Richard Petty didn’t do that good in this car. he even admitted he didn’t like it that much after he drove in it. Pete Hamilton, who drove for Petty Enterprises , won the 1970 Daytona 500 with the SuperBird!!!! Pete versus David Pearson, one of the best races to watch the rookie versus the veteran. Richard Petty blew his engine early in the race and had to retire. it’s an awesome moment seeing him coach the pit crew while Pete was still out there 🎉🎉But yeah anyway, these cars are awesome. Great collection.

I prefer the Superbird. I have a feeling Lou might also. I'm a little surprised that there wasn't any mention of the fact that the Daytona is much more rare by almost 3 to 1.
Lot Of Dealers Had Trouble Moving These ,When They First Came Out & Few Bought Them Their Self,Probably Retired & On Private Island Somewhere After Selling Them Recently !! Lol
When Plymouth lured Richard Petty back they change the look for the Superbird to make it look aesthetically more pleasing was actually three or four miles an hour slower then to Daytona that's why the front cap is different the wings in a different place Etc the rest is just the difference in the base car

Clearly not car people :-) It happens and it's ok. Lou

I'm a sucker for pistol gripped shifters, so I'd go w/the '70. On the other hand, a 2 car garage makes the choice even easier!

Both are awesome! But, My favorite is the Daytona! I'd be happy with either of them though!!!
Thanks for sharing your favorite :-)
These cars were somethin' special
I agree :-)

The wing on the Superbird is closer to the rear roofline than the Charger
Good observation. Thank you for viewing & sharing.
Also the wing on the Daytona is more upright and rear deck is shorter👍

Thanks for this comparison, guys. Great fun. Both beautiful machines. I prefer the body lines of the Daytona, but do prefer some of the other touches on the Superbird. I think the front nose cone is better on the Plymouth. I noticed the wing angle seems different, too. Cheers
Hi Robbie R. Esq. Glad you enjoy the comparison and shared your pick of the Daytona. Lou
Partial to the Daytona Charger, but would take either one.
Thank you for viewing and sharing your choice :-)
I like both but I like the color and look of the Daytona
Hi John Maccoy, Like picking a Winner in a Beauty Contest :-) Lou
i think charger better in aerodynamics, look at the rear windshield angle, it seems have little turbulent than superbird
Hi IIham Defra, Thank you for sharing which one you prefer. Thank you, Lou
To drive either one is context as to what is faster. I would love the Superbird for putting a long straight stretch of hammer down. The 69 appears maybe a little more agile.
Thank you Jeff Brooks for sharing your thoughts :-) Lou
You missed one of the most noticeable differences of the two. The wing of the Superbird is more swept back and looks much nicer in my opinion. The angles are different!
You're right, thank you for adding that.
The nose and the wing on the Superbird are more curvy then the Daytona. Both cars are so sexy.
Hi vortexen1, Good point on the nose :-) I think they are both great cars too. Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
Well done
:-)
Equally awesome 1-hit wonder muscle cars but if I could only have one it would be the Plymouth Superbird.

I prefer the shape of the charger.
Hi Gasoline66, Thank you for viewing and sharing. Hope you see many more cars on the Channel you'll enjoy, Lou
The Charger was faster!
Gasoline66 wish petty had been in the charger so it would have survived 70's tighter rules on how many they had to make.
No way. I'll take the Superbird any day.
Same here.
Naming the differences between to makes and models, you could be there all day.
You're right, this video could have been longer :-) Did you enjoy the cars?
Lou Costabile, oh yes, very much, thanks for the vid.
My pleasure :-) I enjoy the Superbird's and Daytona's so if you type in "My Car Story With Lou Superbird" and "My Car Story with Lou Daytona" you see some you're familiar with, and there will be a few surprises too :-)
Doesn't Tom also have a black hemi Daytona?
Yes. Enjoy ruclips.net/video/XtjkSN-bhl8/видео.html
Who’s the faster one Plymouth super bird or fordgt40
That's a fun question, I'm not sure, however I'd like to find out :-)
We used to go drinking in NY state when we were 16 because the drinking age there was 18 vs Pa. bieng 21. I lived in Erie Pa. and we would go to Westfield Ny which was about 20-25 miles away. Westfield was and still is a sleeply little farming community with maybe 1500 people or so. Funny thing was they had a Dodge dealership and it had 3-4 Superbirds there for sale. Those cars sat there unsold for a couple of years and then one day they were gone. They were not a popular car by any stretch of the imagination. Of course in hindsite I wishI would have had the money to but even one but as a goofy 16 year old in 1970 I didnt know too much
Good story Don Novicki :-)
My 67 R/T came out of Westfield Dodge.
awesome ..... but :
I heard that they were built from Satellite or Coronet .....
-was that for 70-71 years ?
thx
Hi diamonddog257, The 1969 Daytona is a Charger, and the 1970 Superbird is a Road Runner. Lou
I heard that, Lou.
... Nothing for '71 ?
I thought I had a good reference....
Superbird has '70 Dodge Coronet fenders...suprised the guy that owns the cars knows so little about them...
They are both amazing cars. No way to be really partial. I think the Charger is a more classic, but How could a person really pick. The sound is amazing. A Hemi is beyond the engines of today. Its really impressive to hear that thing.
, bn
Hi Krista Benning, I'm in your corner, I like them both too :-) Glad you enjoyed these two wonderful cars. Here is a funny one for you as I drive the green one and "Stall it"! Enjoy, Lou ruclips.net/video/1cTLyPBZG9g/видео.html
Love'em both!! Can't pick just one! (Please sans the Bloomberg ad)
I love them both too :-)
I like the Front of the super bird in the back of the charger in the side of the Daytona
Thank you Cave Man for viewing and sharing your thoughts :-)
This bird is amazing
Hi Y, Happy to read you enjoy this car. You're timing is PERFECT! Stay tuned for tomorrow AM's episode :-) Lou
Big Bird is the bomb !
Thank you for viewing and sharing your choice Marvin Gross :-) Lou
No need for a comparison like he said the 69 charger is the most iconic look at those tail lights that wide stripe. There’s a woman in a small Connecticut town that still has her all original 70 super bird in like new condition with a four-speed. They’re still out there.
Hi Robert, Happy to read your thoughts, and cool that a woman in CT has her original Superbird :-) Like this woman, enjoy! Lou ruclips.net/video/kI6Ul6f3jAI/видео.html
Both killer and both colors are really desirable especially the vitamin c orange,ive always really liked the back end (lights) of the 1968-round lights & 69's,but still love the 1970 superbirds,it really is a pity chrysler australia didnt follow chrysler u.s,.with cubic inch motor/gearbox options and design a lot more closer those iconic years..
Hi J X, The Superbird is your choice :-) Thank you for viewing & sharing, Lou
MOPARS FOREVER !
Hi HEMISUPERBEE426 DAVID, Glad you enjoy these cars. Did you see this one? Enjoy! Lou ruclips.net/video/2uycFfKPA28/видео.html

But there is more options you can get on the Plymouth super bird there more rare and also there is none out there that has a v6 or crappy v4
The American Red Solo Cup did you just say v4 🤣🤣

Hey Forest...you stupid or somethin'???
Is the daytona early production? Spoiler set back indicates so
Hi James, Hmmm, I'm not sure. Hoping a Viewer with knowledge can share, Lou
@@loucostabile by the way i would take the daytona. Lower number produced, add a 4 speed and you would have my dream car
No mention of the wing being farther back on the Daytona
Good point! Thank you for adding that information to the story Boudreau Guitars. Hope you see many more cars you'll enjoy on this RUclips Channel, Lou
I thought they had hydraulic lifters in 1970 Hemi ?
since '68
Hi Edge2 Sword, I see diamonddog257 shared "since '68", Lou
Love the horn of a roadrunner
Hi HPOWLMAN, Someone had a great idea for the car with a Road Runner carrying a helmet on your Wing to press the horn and have that "BEEP BEEP" sound :-) I like that too, Lou
Lou Costabile it would be fun when passing someone and beep
Agreed :-)
Where are the vent window stickers saying not to open at speeds in excess of 150 mph?
I like that idea :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing Warren, Lou
Lou Costabile There was a guy I traded parts with that had an original yellow Superbird with a 440 six pack. On both of the side vent windows was the sticker that I asked about.
SUPERBIRD ALL THE WAY!!!! BEEP BEEP!

Actually, Richard Petty didn’t do that good in this car. he even admitted he didn’t like it that much after he drove in it. Pete Hamilton, who drove for Petty Enterprises , won the 1970 Daytona 500 with the SuperBird!!!! Pete versus David Pearson, one of the best races to watch the rookie versus the veteran. Richard Petty blew his engine early in the race and had to retire. it’s an awesome moment seeing him coach the pit crew while Pete was still out there 🎉🎉But yeah anyway, these cars are awesome. Great collection.

Love them both. If I had to choose: Daytona. It looks more like a pure race car.
Hi William Henderson, Thank you for viewing and choosing your car of the two. Lou
P.S. For me, it's like picking a Winner at the Miss World competition, there is no loser between these two :-)
Is this a car vin diesels using on a movie fast and a furious 6?
Yes the dodge charger
He's driving this one ruclips.net/video/ZtshxazQT6M/видео.html

Lou Costabile
.. Tu viens en France !?? 👍😉
Just the Bonjour part :-)
She vlu bluh vucu se blah blah
If someone came up to and said to pick between a Dodge Daytona and a Plymouth SuperBird. I'll say I will take both of them because I really love old school muscle
I agree, these two are favorites of mine :-)
In my opinion, the Playmouth Superbird is faster and the car body is wider, while the Dodge charger is slower and the body is shorter.

I prefer the Superbird. I have a feeling Lou might also. I'm a little surprised that there wasn't any mention of the fact that the Daytona is much more rare by almost 3 to 1.
Thank you Art Boston for sharing you choose the Superbird :-)
That is one sick video. 😲
Thank you Easy Going :-) Hope you see many more on this Channel you enjoy.
Superbird s2
But daytona is cool too
Hi Camarada Stalin, Thank you for viewing & making your choice, Lou
Lot Of Dealers Had Trouble Moving These ,When They First Came Out & Few Bought Them Their Self,Probably Retired & On Private Island Somewhere After Selling Them Recently !! Lol
Hi Ed Cain, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge :-) Lou
Well Lou....which one? 😉😄
Btw....aren't the wings at a different angle, between the two?
Hi Duececoupe, You're paying attention, and correct :-) The Daytona's Wing is farther back on the quarter panel, Lou
Are they both the same height?
stude1953....that's a good question, I just noticed angle of the wings....
When Plymouth lured Richard Petty back they change the look for the Superbird to make it look aesthetically more pleasing was actually three or four miles an hour slower then to Daytona that's why the front cap is different the wings in a different place Etc the rest is just the difference in the base car
