This one kissed a telephone pole.  Might be good for parts for someone restoring one though.

Based on their choice of wheels, looks like it had a dumbass owner/driver.  :Twocents:
1969 Charger 383/auto
1969 Charger R/T 440/auto (waiting to be restored)
1972 Chevelle SS clone 383 sbc
1959 Chevy Apache short bed stepside
1968 Charger (glorified parts car)
Yes, I know I have too many cars. My wife reminds me daily.

So a set or Rallye wheels means a better driver? Going with a set of stock 14x5.5" wheels makes a better handling, safer car? Wake up.  :slap:

Definitely more than a kiss, however the actual description might be limited since this is a family friendly site.

Sadly, it looks like it was a solid car...... no big flakes of filler flung out of it.

Still looks easier to fix than a lot of rust buckets for sale.

I knew there would be a way of improving the looks of the front of the 70 model......found it!!  :icon_smile_big:

This.  

IMO the classic car hobby has a disproportionate fear of wrecked bodies compared to rusty ones.

Damn,

I am fairly certain that car was just sold out of Boise ID, a few months back. The car was perfect for the most part on the restoration side. It didn't have those wheels on it though.

It is similar but the yellow 70 running around boise had a custom center console, v21 and stainless bolts for the fenders and hood.
There are few problems in life that cannot be solved with C-4.

The wheels don't look bad to me. They are halibrand replicas that were painted black.



That's a shame about the accident though.

I've noticed, every time a charger shows up on Copart, there's always a story about the car being recently sold/purchased.

How is it so many clowns with 40k (or more) to spend on a classic car immediately total them after purchase? How does one acquire that sort of disposable income while being so wreckless?

If the yellow car was not a rot box before it got to this point I think I would rather fix a bent solid car then work on a soft rusty car
The front fenders do not even look too bad on it

Somebody get cbrestorations on this one. Seems like a simple job compared to some of the other stuff he's digging into (literally).

Disposable wealth does not always come from hard work & responsibility.

As much as i dislike 70s chargers appearance, i'm a charger man through and through and this hurts my heart. Hope the guy who drove it looks worse, lmao joking joking. (or am i ...)
