Delusional Charger sellers

[Mytur Binsdirti]

I wonder what's the idea behind the portholes in front of the front wheels?

That car looks really busy and very confused.

Probably posted before but I think he was going for the Homer Simpson custom look?

I wonder if they are turning lights that come on when the turn signal for that way is on
Like the big C bodies have

Really? The price is crazy but he claims it's an original General Lee from the first 5 episodes. Lol

People say anything to make a dime I guess!

Putting the GL part aside, yes a few sellers are out there which is what I expect to see in this thread, but Why is it that just about with EVERY car for sale, you guys think the seller is Delusional when in fact if it were for sale by any of the members here it would probably be the same price if not more.  This particular car seems to come with a lot of used and new parts not to mention that most sellers end up taking an offer much less that the asking price anyway, take out your catalogs and see what the parts would cost if you added them all up.  Have any of you guys looked at the for sale section on this site, it not much different than most of the listings that are posted in this thread.  It's going to be interesting to see when posters on this thread list their cars for sale.......

[72Charger72]

This car is supposedly.......key word supposedly...and no pic of VIN?

Not me, I point it out.

My gripe with this forum is the double standards that people have here. For instance, when a complete POS that is advertised off site & linked here, the claws come out. But when a site member obtains an equal pile of scrap metal, the comments are (almost always) glowing.

[marshallfry01]

I wouldn't ever pay 15k for a car in pieces like that. You never know how much might be missing until you go to put it back together. A seller is much better off selling a car that's complete and rusty. I think if he would've left the body alone he could probably get 15..... but I don't see that happening now.

You guys should just change the name of this thread to "Let's Bash Anyone With a Car For Sale".  I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking this, it's pretty sad.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

Not as sad as those bumble bee seat covers.  

[JB400]

For the price that he's asking for the 74, there's enough wiggle room to afford to change the front seat covers.

That's not really that bad of a price.

[Mytur Binsdirti]

For a 74?   You're a funny guy!

How about justifying your opinion?

[Ryan.C]

How about justifying your opinion?

While I am not particularly partial to 74 chargers, after reading your post I thought how would I justify to someone why I think 69 Chargers were worth what they seem to go for. It is a subjective subject to say the least
No disrespect intended, just a thought.

[VegasCharger]

If he/she gets $15k for that '74 they better count their lucky stars.

I had a complete running derivable 1973 Charger SE small block in primer, rust free and dent free. I couldn't even get $2500.00 for it. So I said "F" it and parted it out and made about $7300 in about a year and a half. This was back in 2013.

1973/74s don't bring in that much. Yes they are listed for a lot but how many of them actually sell for the asking price?

Now add the buffoonery of the personal touches that these cars are a victim of that gets in the way and distracts potential buyers. If that were a U code Charger then different story. But these Chargers need to be a special package from factory, survivors or unmolested to even consider reaching the 15-20K platform.

Sure this car is a nice hot rod for a youngster to hop in and get joy out of but not at the expense of 15K. You're reaching 2nd gen Charger territory with that asking price.



EDIT: Here's another one close to the same price and some buffoonery as well lol. Blacked out bumper/grille, stripe, ugly color and the infamous hideous of smoothing out the SE quarter glass opera windows. But these are just MY opinions, others may differ.

I was about to say pretty much the same thing, but my dear friend Vegas took the words out of my mouth.

I bet he gets his asking price or very close to it

The person that will buy it is someone that really wants a 68 69 or 70 Charger but sees they are asking $30 000 for the same kind of ( well almost maybe not the seats) shiny paint car and thinks getting this one is a stepping stone to something better in the future   

[alfaitalia]

Hideous! I bet Shelby regretted putting their name to that. Even the last two winning bidders realised the error of their ways before it was too late and backed out!!!

People that post vertical aspect/Portrait pictures need a kick to the dick. I'd love to go back in time and punt Steve Jobs in the crotch for setting up the IPhone that way. The lazy dickholes that don't rotate the camera 90 degrees to get a proper angle are mindless lemmings. The REASON that TV screens, movie screens, computer screens and all other screens are wider than they are tall is because as humans, our EYES are side by side. Dows anyone make a movie in "tallscreen" format? NO, they don't. They make it in WIDESCREEN format because it looks better. Vertical pictures is like looking through a narrow doorway.
