Nine hundred thousand dollars is what a genuine 1969 Dodge Hemi Daytona pulled at Mecum’s sale of the Wellborn Museum Collection, and the number says as much about winged Mopar mystique as it does about this specific car. Built purely to satisfy NASCAR homologation rules, the Daytona’s aerodynamic bodywork turned it into a rolling motorsport artifact rather than an ordinary muscle car. See what pushed the bidding past three-quarters of a million dollars.

The Wellborn Museum Collection crossed the Mecum auction block, and its opening act was a 1969 Dodge Hemi Daytona, one of the most extreme cars Detroit ever built for the street. When the hammer fell, the number read $900,000. This is winged Mopar royalty meeting the open market in real time.
