Delusional Charger sellers

[Charger-Bodie]

is this a members car? looks familiar.

[alfaitalia]

Probably stating the obvious but it looks like someone put a 70 Dash in there with the 70 vin tag as that doesn't look like a 68 VIN.


Looks like an E body console or for a third Gen B Body..

You are correct. From the ad...

"Sorry for not including this in the original post but the numbers on the radiator mount do match the VIN, I will try to update a photo of this soon when there is light to go outside and snag a photo."


And he want's 46 large for it! Who wants to step up to message this guy to tell him that he's got a 68 car with a 70 dash with VIN numbers that don't belong on the car.....and that now all he's got is a parts car?   

Done...well I was bored and it's late here!

[alfaitalia]

Well that was fast...got a reply from the seller. He says "I was just going by what the title says". Hmmm.

[VegasCharger]

Safety first!

And the professionalism of the seal job on the custom bulkhead (red arrow).

The VIN in the ad is proper for a 70 Charger
It has all 70 interior ( except front seats) dash and key in the steering column

Maybe just new quarters and had a 68 front end laying around and that is what got used so put 68 markers on the rear quarters too

Has 69 tail lights with the chrome on the lenses on the back of the car from the new picture added

The XP model for 1970 would have had the aluminum trim panel on the taillight panel.

The 70 aluminum trim panel will not fit over the tail lights if the have the chrome trim on them ( I have tried and did not work )
Also you have to drill all those holes to mount the trim panel which is not fun either

Still looks like just using parts they had to fill the needed space

[Y1CHARGER]

Door handles are quite interesting also....

3rd gen Charger (and other 71-74 B Bodies)  door handles.

. Nothing but taillights with this one.

[Stevearino]

With prices today I am not sure whether this is off base anymore. Two Chargers $5500 for each.

Kick that guy in the dick for posting vertical format pictures. I just hate when people do that.

Yep your typical idiotic, vertical, lazy cell phone pics on your typical stoooooopid Craigslist ad.

This one is...special...$5k for what exactly?

While I'm glad these guys jumped what looks to be a pretty worthless car if I were the stunt man I'm not sure I would have strapped into that thing 

[JB400]

Looks like someone's trying to cash in on their junk.  Not much, if anything left

Tail panel looks good.   

[ACUDANUT]

Holt shit. 5K for that. 

[60Buick]

It's at $12,900.00 now with 41 bids and still has time to go. I am curious what happens to it. Is it even savagable after the hit it took? 

[Mike DC]

  
People mostly buy jumped GLs for souvenirs rather than resto projects.


If you think it's possible to 'restore' an old axe by replacing both the handle and the blade, then yeah, that GL body is salvageable.  

It was a total mess before it hit the ramp.  (Look at that broken framerail in the trunk.)  Jump cars like this are basically held together by the rollcage. 

[5hunert]

This is hilarious .  Whenever this car's jump was posted on social media, there were lines of comments from folks insulted that such a rare car was being destroyed.  Those who knew the car justified it as the car was basically a rusted out, VIN-less shell that financially unfeasible to restore BEFORE the jump.  Now that its been crashed, its bid over $12K with 21 minutes to go.

[Mike DC]

 
But Dynacorn knows there was never a market for repro 68-70 Charger shells.  Gotta make those rare Mustangs and Novas.

[Kern Dog]

That is a curious statement.
How many Camaro and Mustang bodies have been sold? Is it possible that if a Charger body were offered and sold, the sky high demand would drop off due to increased supply?

[JB400]

I doubt it.  The average person probably couldn't afford a brand new body

[Kern Dog]

I have yet to hear of anyone that bought one of their Challenger bodies.
