Ha people must be watching this thread like a hawk or something because when i find a car its gone  :P anyway


Well, you are getting an idea on what cars are priced fairly and ignoring the over priced ones.
If you are ready to buy you will have to make up your mind quickly or it will be gone.

Otherwise the fun continues.

That's for sure

By the way guys that 68 is not worth it so it's off the list what do you guys think of the rest? I'm leaning towards that purple of in eBay at the moment these cars are just so expensive though  :rofl:

From what I understand, I thought this guy would work with you on getting this one. :scratchchin:

I don't know if I'd be sad. That purple one looked like it needed some work for sure. And the pics left alot to the imagination. Rear bumper was out of alignment...who knows what the cause was, front fender dented in, new motor doesn't always mean good things....I'd say oh well! And move on. THE HUNT CONTINUES!

If anything, I'm learning from this thread that third gen prices are soaring. At least people selling them think they are.

They sure seem to be i mean any third gen that looks even decent is around 10k which just doesn't make sense  :shruggy:

This isnt bad but the seller wants 20k for the car and last time it was on ebay it bid up to i think 13 and he now re posted it

I would probably offer 10k  :scratchchin:

I like the blue '70. Shame about the purple car, I say that cuz any car you get will need work. The trick is having a car that you don't mind putting the work into.

I look at the 70 and I see a very acceptable amount of require TLC. So what if the paint's chipped and the body has some rust and the seats don't match? You'll still be driving a Charger.

I really like that blue car. It's been a fun thread, but I want you in a car. School is about to start.

If I had to guess I'd say the GTX didn't have the Beep-Beep horn in 71, but did 72-73.
"Scars" 1973 Base 318/904 Originally B5

Married on November 23rd, 2009
Fried all the electricals two weeks after purchase
Set on fire ~twice~
Overheated til it would diesel a full five minutes ~twice~

Never once didn't start, never stranded me, never once did not take me where I needed to go. Daily driver of 4+ years.

Currently undergoing 413/727 swap after I finally beat the 318 til it lost a headgasket. The kicker is the 318 still cranks and runs like nothing is wrong. I love my ca

Man the seats in that 68 are hideous  :flame:
They pop out so much in that dull interior.

So what your saying is that might be a real RT?

If so that seems to be a very nice car for the money
