Unfortunately it is very difficult to find parts for the Daytona especially the early 80's models. The best advice I can give you is to scavenge the F/S section at the Turbo Dodge Forums. They usually have some parts for sale. Other than that you will likely have to scavenge junk yards for a good portion of the parts especially for trim, and interior plastic pieces. Daytonas are infamous for the odometer gear teeth breaking as well which means either you have to buy the replacement gear and fix it by hand (difficult) or find a working gauge cluster.

I think some of the more common parts like oil filters, fuel filters, pumps, etc... you can get from your local auto parts stores. If you really have your heart set on making it a nice car you might check your local classifieds and craigslist to see if you can find yourself a suitable and cheap parts car.

headliner material is nothing special and readily available in bulk. it's very easy to install properly. you can even get the special adhesive at WalMart. I'm junking 1/2 dozen daytonas, if you were near by you could help yourself to any parts cheap.
