Who hasn't seen Joe Dirt a million times? If you're a fan of the iconic David Spade comedy, then you probably remember Joe Dirt's clunker car he had in the film. Well, that car just sold for a massive fortune.

The car in question is a Daytona Dodge Charger, and it sold for $330,000 — a very hefty sum for many. In the film, the titular Joe Dirt picks up the Charger at an impound lot. He's there to collect his Plymouth GTX, which got impounded after he got caught in a hot air balloon in a thunderstorm (long story). Dirt is unable to collect the car due to not having enough money.
Instead, he buys the Daytona as a loaner car for $450. Car aficionados would find this particularly funny as Daytonas are fairly rare. In that, there's only 503 of them in existence. Likewise, only 70 had a 6.9 liter Hemi like in the film. So it's very unlikely that someone would sell the car for $450. It's scraps would probably collect a couple of thousand.
