What is that stuff in the trunk of this 70

Talk about Perfume on a Pig. The Trunk looks like it's full of Fiberglass matte with lots of fiberglass resin used. LEON.

I've seen that before. He has an explanation for it, but I can't remember  :brickwall:
Give me a few. I'll find it

Oh, I see he added it in his description. "The body specialist used something in the trunk to prevent rust. It has been ready for carpeting but I never bothered to have it done. "

Why does it look like that if it's ready for carpet. Body Specialists? Really

I'm guessing it's leftover tar from a road construction project. :shruggy:

I'd be careful with what maybe under it.

Looks like "The Blob" is in the trunk waiting to devour someone.

OK I'm usually not one to nitpick cars posted for sale, but as a former body man, some red flags popped out here.

Extreme misalignment issues on the fenders/bumper. The passenger fender is almost touching the door on the bottom, but has a very large gap up top.

The pentastar badge on the lower fender was sprayed over, they didn't even bother to mask it, much less remove it. Combined with the abundant over spray on the k frame/front suspension components, that's a tell tale sign of a hack/rushed respray.

The lower quarter panels/valence caps look off. Along with the center body line on the RR quarter, I'm not getting the impression bodywork was done properly here.

Oh, and that trunk sealer, I've never seen anything like that done that wasn't to cover holes/rust in the floor. There's no other reason to do that.

This car is giving me the vibe that someone decided to throw a quick coat of resale red on it and cash out.

Just posting this Incase any lurkers maybe considering buying this one. Proceed with caution.

That last car is originally a great color: B5 blue. What happened to the sway bar? All Chargers came standard with them, this car has the proper lower control arms, no bar....?
The car was built toward the end of the cycle with that high VIN.
Body specialist did the trunk work? What the holy F*** ?????  With that logic, Ricky Retardo the local window licker is the neighborhood glass specialist.   :eek2:

Looks more like Bondo Bennie performed his sculpture magic on those quarters.... ::)
