Awesome find. That will be worth a ton of $$$ when restored love it!

That is definitely a 'Crusty Challenger'.

I'd like to Bid,but not if it's private Bidders.

Very cool. What is this thing worth restored?

Im sure at least a few people with no money sent him a note telling him theyd pay a fortune for it, so it ruins it for the next guy. Some things never change

Its a Catch-22 car. Because it was ordered with a shaker hood and the broadcast sheet and fender tag document it as a shaker car but it was built with a power bulge hood because of the assembly line issues at the time and no available shaker hoods.

So, in what configuration would you restore it? Shaker or no shaker?

Done to perfection, I'd say $150K since it's NOM. Challengers just do not bring the same money that the Cudas do....just ask the man who used to own one (me). And, I would bet that thing is gonna have more issues (rust) than the seller is claiming.

Thanks, that's interesting. I agree that it's an incredibly cool car but I suspect it will hit $75k+ before the music stops - and there's not a lot of meat left on that bone at a $150k restored value. And, I know we don't do this to get rich, but still....

Yes that's the rub with this car - firewall not pierced for shaker cable. For originality you don't do the Shaker. But for the bucks? You do.

listed as a Dana 4.10 car but described as a Track pack car...isnt it considered a super track pack with 4.10s? even if a 727 car?

My recollection is that Super Track Pak was 4.10 Dana and power disc brakes.

It has a B51 on the fender tag...i believe it denotes "B51 power assit disc brks" as per chrysler literature correct? or does it need the B41 as well for disc?

NVM..i googled it.. it does need both B51 and B41 to be disc ..otherwise 11 inch drums at all four corners

Oh, man. Steve? What say you? I say NO!:scholar::eek:

Hemi.....one day!:headbang:

Cheers:beers:

Waaaaay too crusty underneath.

Go back to your Vette. And paint it that original Silver Blue. I love that color. Silver Blue is close to the Mopar B3 Ice Blue Metallic, another favorite color.
