*The following warnings are true in fact and of public record*

* DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH FWD PERFORMANCE located in the hicktown of Spring Texas!!!!
The crooks at FWD stole a 475$ Stage III/TI SBEC from us in 2005.This malicious act then caused 2500 Euros of follow on damages for myself, and a fellow US Soldier serving here in Germany. We are suing for damages, and, the federal Government is investigating & prosecuting them for several Felony crimes. (For those interested) I have current court and Sherrifs Department file data to include the case number as well. FWD is being investigated and prosecuted for:
* Libel
* International Mail Fraud
* 6 Infractions of the Federal RICO mandates.
* International Wire and Bank fraud
If you are considering purchasing ANYTHING from these crooks, RECONSIDER! Everything they sell can be had elsewhere usually for 40-200% less than what they charge for the very same item, PLUS, you don't end up running the risk of being ripped off by them as we were!
CAUTION! DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH FWD PERFORMANCE (aka Texas Trailer Park Trash online Rip off artists!)

Welcome to my 3rd Cardomain website! Here you will be able to follow the restauration of my rare Euro Spec, 1993 Shelby RT Daytona. One of only 8 (!!!) ever built to official Chrysler export specifications.
Before I get started, and this has been a long time coming, but I will be adding a Turbo Dodge Community public service announcement and general WARNING!

I found the car (as usual) by complete accident! A friend contacted me, and she said that she saw an R/T in Autoscout24, an online car sales forum here in Germany.I had let it be known here in Germany in the Daytona and LeBaron communities, that I was desperate to find and own an RT Daytona. They are far and away the most exotic and most cherished (and expensive!)of all the Daytonas ever built between 1984 and 1993. Well, just as I had suspected, it was going to be a real project! I went up to Merseberg (East Germany) and saw what was indeed a real, official Chrysler import 93 Shelby R/T...but one with problems. (Many actually!)But, my love for Daytonas persevered, and I bought the car...without even a test drive! (Long story!)
The only two brand new cars I have ever owned, were Turbo Daytonas! I owned the very first Dodge Daytona Turbo Z in the State of Georgia in 1984.

Later, after graduating Army Flight School in 1987, my Graduation present was a brand new Flash red, Dodge Daytona Shelby Z T-top, with the then new TII Intercooled engine.

(What a great car! These are the only two pics I have of it!) It was totalled by my Wife just 230 short miles later. (Oh, and she totalled the 84 1/2 Turbo Z as well...ok, some drunk bastard hit her in the rear end, so it wasn't her fault!)

Well, she's gone now, but I am still in love with Daytonas!

hey whats up nice car i had never heard of Euro spec mopar cars. I was wondering if you guys have the Mitsubishi powered MOPAR cars over there? I have a 1990 Dodge Daytona ES with the 3.0L v6 SOHC 6g72 engine and a 3.77GR transmission. I just resently replaced the transmission the summer of 2008 and just got done replacing the engine on June 28 2009 it was all worth the many, many man hours of work and money. the car runs excelent.

Hi...thanks for the cardomain comments. I was somewhat misleading with my production numbers for the Euro SPec Shelby RT's. There were 40 built total. 20 in 92, 20 in 93. Of the 20 in 93, only 8 were Green. As far as I know, mine is the only Green survivor. Had a guy wrte me from Germany once, said he had a 93 Black one I think, and it had the tuypical RT woes...cracked head, no way to fix it. Well, I got mine fixed ina bizarre, 2 year long odysee..only to have Lonewolf Performance OR FedEx (Still to be determined) totally destroy my Cams and liters! So, I have totally redone head, and no Cams or lifters! So I will sue both of them, and se who pays up...another typical BS day in Turbo Dodge land. (Shoulda bought a Mustang...those folks are not all crooks and kooks!, and parts are WAY easier to find!)Later!

Oh hell ya I'm gonna get some nice crusin pics! It the guy I bought it from kept it in amazing shape! It sat outside in Salt Lake City weather for about 10 years. So the paint is really messed up. But thats the only thing it needs! When it gets warm I'll be taking lots of video of it. And if I'm lucky I can run it out at the Bonnivllle Salt Flats. I'm only 10 miles west of it. Thats about the only place I will get close enough to run the speeds you can on your autobahn. Oh.. P.S. Hodas suck. haha!
