ANGRIER 2.0: MIKE MUSTO’s 1969 DODGE DAYTONA

[@HighRevNation]

This Charger is the definition of "Goals". I thought I was building a pretty nice car on my channel and Mike drops THIS BEAST!

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

You are! Just keep in mind that it's taken me almost 2 decades to finish both cars - just take it slow and steady and you'll have something amazing when you're done!

[@jerrybaker6227]

Great to see mike and house of muscle again. Always loved that show

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you!

[@kylestephenson3004]

Truer words could not be spoken

[@Z06RFan]

Hey Mike, so happy for you and they did a fantastic job with your car. I met you briefly at the 2023 SEMA and I asked you about this car and you said "stay tuned". I love both your 68 and 69 Chargers. Looking forward to seeing more videos of this one!

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you! And stay tuned because there's a full video on the '68 coming next week.

[@Z06RFan]

@@drivebigmuscle8080 also glad you brought back "house of Muscle" I enjoyed all of those videos

[@AaronHardinPhoto]

"Saving the car for the next owner," is the best line I've heard in a while! Drive it! Mike always has the best automotive philosophy.

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Gotta let em eat!

[@kiko1605]

The video I didn't know I needed! 🎉

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Stoked you liked it!

[@barryrussell4106]

Hell yeah your philosophy makes me smile, Mike you got to be the coolest guy in the hobby. I love big muscle

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you!! I just hope more people get out and drive them!

[@mikeedward2827]

Congratulations Mike! You've obtained your dream car! I've never been much of a Mopar guy, but this thing just does it! 🤟

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

It's definitely not for everyone, but to me it's a real life cartoon character that just makes me giggle! 😜

[@plymouthdie-castreplicas]

Magnificent black-on black beast, Mike!💯👌 Bad to the bone💪

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you!

[@mg_streetkandi]

That's a nice transformation..hope you get to put some miles on it..👍🏾🏁

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thousands upon thousands of miles will be put on thing, trust me!

[@francfurian8215]

Mike I love your attitude & really dig that car. Cheers😊

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

🙏

[@blueduster74]

Happy for you dude. I can’t wait to see it on Power Tour or at Moparty.

[@303Mopar]

Doesn't get any better than a "68 Charger and a '69 Daytona!

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

I wholeheartedly agree with you!

[@G55STEYR]

When I saw it I thought how cool would be to have an updated powertrain, so yes, what a monster. You have to do some parts yourself.

[@pontaverde]

Great episode!!!!

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you!

[@larreamma1519]

Very Happy for you !!! You did the car exactly how I would !!! Such an amazing job well done ! 😊 👍

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you! Wesley Motorsports crushed it!

[@michaelf.1581]

Glad to see it... I wondered what the status of that car was. It's badass!

[@erichthered]

Mike I’ve been waiting years for this video. So happy it’s finally sorted. Let’s see what it can do 1/4 mile? Or maybe a track? All the love cheers

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Definitely the track, that's what it was built for - this is definitely a car for going around corners and not launching from a dig. Roll-ons though... 😉

[@DezzysSpeedShop]

Soo happy for you!!!🎉😊

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thank you Buddy and hope you're doing well!

[@HotRodGurl82]

🔥🔥🔥 Bad ass ride, Mike! 🤘🏻

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

[@HotRodGurl82]

You’re welcome! 🤘🏻

[@walterfurian8806]

Spoken like a true car guy. I drive the shit out of mine and I know what you mean when you say it just puts a smile on my face ,for me the last 13.5 years 67 Dart small block stroker .

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Well done!

[@captainrawn]

The finished product looks great Mike! I have to say that having two of these cars, one old school and a modern drive train version is the best of both worlds. Being able to pick between them depending on how you feel, or what you intend to do that day is a nice luxury to have in our gear head world. I love the when I'm worn out it will be too attitude! Reminds me of something I once said to a buddy when he was bragging about how minty the seats in his truck were just before he sold it after 10 years of ownership because he had always kept good seat covers on it. So I said to him you paid full price for the truck, sat on those shitty covers for 10 years, and the next guy is buying it at a substantial discount and sits on the seats you didn't get to enjoy. How does that make any sense hahaha.

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

"So I said to him you paid full price for the truck, sat on those shitty covers for 10 years" - SO, SO, True! I honestly don't understand it. People spend so much time, effort and money to NOT ENJOY what they've created - makes no sense. As for having the carb'd car and the modern one - they are so drastically different, but each wonderful in their own way. I've got a video on the Charger coming next week we're we'll dive into the '68 a bit more. And appreciate the watch and the comment, thank you!

[@captainrawn]

​@@drivebigmuscle8080You're welcome Mike we're thrilled to see you making these videos again on a regular basis. Lots of work to do them I'm sure but you're presentations and personality are spot on. You'll have 500,000 subscribers in no time

[@kramrollin69]

Reminds me of the fun you had driving that Big Muscle green 67 Mustang fastback street racer from a few years back. Still watch that video....

[@martymorse2]

Great to see a next generation video rather than auto archeology.

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Gotta keep evolving them!

[@KyleP133]

Part of me wishes it was still a manual but this is such a cool car as always. I was so excited to finally see an update on it. Beautiful car! Dont save it for the next owner, drive it! I have to remind myself of this for my build.

[@pierrealexguev]

Man that intro remided me of Drive Muscle. You didn't change the way you are and you do your intros.l, only your hair's color!

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Yeah ... definitely got a few more grays since the BIG MUSCLE days.

[@chrismasters8718]

That is the best charger of them all you did a great job. Glad you spent the money and the time to get with you exactly wanted. I would love that also.

[@charlesdalton985]

I don't know how many people caught the significance of the keyed ignition, but it said everything about the build and the builder. It says everything about the attention to detail and the shared vision. Speaking of details - love the "FAFO" sticker. Congratulations on a mean machine - that thing boiled the hides without even trying. As always, thanks for sharing ~ Chuck

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Thanks Chuck! The power delivery come on so strong that it's hilarious, but there's definitely a learning curve to it. It'll take me some time before I'm really comfortable with it.

[@DanMopars]

Hell yes. I get it. Kept the original key and ignition on my hellcat swapped 67 Plymouth belvedere. Its visceral

[@Dad-jk2wd]

Amazing!!!!

[@DanMopars]

Love this. I’m in the middle of doing the same with my 67 Belvedere. Kept the original paint but did build it nice interior (original restored interior) and new vinyl top window seals. Used a Borgeson box on mine but same upgrades as your Daytona, otherwise. Mine is e85 pullied hellcat. Nearly there, catch you on the road or at some cruises and shows or events out here in California if all goes well. Thanks for sharing this awesome, motivational beast!

[@emptymannull]

Mike's gone bought not built 😂 All good, different strokes for different folks. For me, building and working on my cars is my therapy for my sanity. Driving is fun and cool, but if I can't engineer and tweak, it's meaningless to me as a hobby. I'm glad Mike is so happy with his refresh.

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

Yup!! Ya gotta be smart enough to know what you don't know and I'll be damned if I knew how to do this to the Daytona!

[@TheRamRanch]

Pretty sure those guys can build a way nicer car than you or Mike.

[@kurtpoblenz2741]

Fantastic execution, on an iconic mopar 🤘🏻🤘🏻👍🏻

Came for the charger build, subscribed because your ‘68 is amazing. Let me know if you’re looking to adopt a son and leave it to me in your will. My wife and daughters will be fine on their own

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

If you like the '68 then you're going to LOVE next weeks video!

[@m1a1hm]

I agree drive these cars don't let them sit in a garage take them on the street and show the world what cars use to be about. There like time machines and let them put a smile on your face because like the old saying go's you can't take them with you.

[@drivebigmuscle8080]

The other part is that you have to drive them to let other people see them as well. To this day I remember the first time I saw a wing car on the street - totally blew me away! Gotta leave an impression on those young minds!!

[@m1a1hm]

@@drivebigmuscle8080 Yeah I know what you mean the first time I saw a 69 Daytona back in the late 70s I said wow what kind of car is that I want one but never had the money to get one.
