The bigger shame is the green interior.

Very interesting auction.
I would be very curious to see what the reserve is ? or if it sells what it goes for ?

Does it look like the rear valence "corners" have been mudded ?

Yep.. they may want to look a little harder for the BSheet that belongs to that car!

GOOD EYE !

Forgive me here..... but I find that hilarious !  

Is it just me ?
or is putting the Broadcast Sheet up for the WRONG Car.....  when advertising one ownership lineage with full and complete documentation since new ? and you are supposed to be a classic car dealership like "charvetclassics" with an all glitzy Ebay ad ....... is that not one of those "priceless" moments ?

[birdsandbees]

They may very well think that's the correct sheet for the car. The correct one may still be in there, many cars off the line got extra paperwork stuffed into them that may have belonged to the car ahead or behind on the line. But yes the dealer selling should have some idea when the VIN doesn't match the tag or sales window sticker. It's not like trying to match a tag sequence and build sheet sequence number on a Lynch Rd Car.

No kidding. At least make mention of it or something..."factory put wrong broadcast sheet in car".....or something like that. The ad mentions "White Hat" options. I thought "White Hat" special cars meant the car had a white vinyl top?  Or did it just mean it came with a vinyl top?

update
I couldn't help it..... so I phoned the guy.
THAT is the Broadcast Sheet that came with the folder on the car... supposedly found years ago under the rear seat. So who knows, maybe the wrong sheet got put in the wrong car at the factory ?
Anyways,
the reserve on the Charger is $24K for anybody who is interested.

Wrong sheets ended up in the wrong car very frequently, especially if they were tucked in seats.  The sheets were only to instruct you what went in that car, they had nothing to do with preserving a heritage for the future so if you had six cars in a row that all had a black vinyl interior it didn't matter which black vinyl rear seat cushion you grabbed for the car as long as the color and material were right.  (and sometimes they didn't even care about that)

White hat special was just what the option package was called ,it could be had with any available color top. I think the ad guys would just keeping with the "good guys in white hats" slogan.

Excellent candidate for a big block conversion, aftermarket parts, and an endless summer of cruises, shows, and burying the 'tach needle into the red...

I got the wrong build sheet in my car but it was only off by 20 numbers

How could you get the wrong build sheet in this car being that far off in number ?

[1970Moparmann]

Up to $24,000.

Ahhh...ok. Thanks for the info. 

[maxwellwedge]

Having the original window sticker is a beautiful thing....just as good as a Broadcast sheet to me.....if given the choice - I would take the window sticker

Cars were not ordinarily built on the assembly line in numerical sequence according to the VIN, and the actual sequence could vary a lot.  For whatever reason, the R/T's scheduled production may have easily been delayed for several days.  Or, it is remotely possible both cars could have been in a repair hole at the assembly plant with their (green) back seats removed & then switched... although that scenario is a bit far-fetched.  That VIN sequence span is not all that far off to have mis-matched broadcast sheets, based on what I've seen.

I would have been highly suspicious if the B-sheet was from a car with a different colored interior or from a different plant.  I think the sellers genuinely didn't know.  That B-Sheet's condition matches the good condition of the car too.  Both were well-kept.

Great looking car!

My first thought regarding the wrong sheet. is that both cars were at the same dealer.318 car has damaged seat , new owner mad that he can't get his car right away. Dealer swaps out seat then gets the R/T seat repaired.

[Ghoste]

That is a possibility as well.

Would be nice if your 318 car gets damaged & they try to substitute it with a R/T thats the same colors. LEON.

And those stupid looking wheels 

[hergfest]

Sold for $30k, so apparently 318 cars are almost worth as much as RTs now?

[bakerhillpins]

I'm pretty sure that the money on this car is because it's a nearly perfect unrestored car.  318 or not, all the paperwork and what looks like NO wear and tear for a car with 120k on the clock?  That thing was taken care of.  Personally, the Cream/Tan 69 383 SE survivor car that made the rounds here was a better car and I believe it sat idle for over a year at 35k.

It SOLD for $30K ?
WOW !
This makes me believe in marketing pure and simple !
and,
that some people are willing to pay a premium for "nearly perfect unrestored car", with all the paperwork and next to NO wear and tear if marketed correctly ?
No doubt it is a nice car...
but,
Mine has 134,000 original miles and runs absolutely perfect(never rebuilt), and is easily in as good or better shape than that 318 example(no offense), with the same one repaint over all original sheet metal done back in 1984, albeit mine is an R/T SE 440 Auto Car, and Black W/Black Vinyl Roof.
Just say'in...
I highly doubt mine would pull above $40-$45K ? and mine still has it's correct Broadcast Sheets in pristine condition(2 in fact).

[Ghoste]

Don't be so sure, 69 RT's have been climbing in value a bit of late so you could get more than you think.  Then again, maybe not.
