68 4spd H-code AC car is back on ebay (Bruce Cliche)

[bakerhillpins]

The 68 383 4bbl 4spd AC car from Bruce Cliche's yard in VT is back on Ebay.  Wow is it bad..  These pics show angles I don't recall seeing in the past.

Looks like some pressure washing/cleaning has pulled more paint off but it's the same car, check out the Dodge decal on the back window.

Looks like the guy that bought it from Milford NH a while back took it to NY for a few years to realize he bought a mess.

Yikes, that's pretty bad! 

[Mytur Binsdirti]

That heap is barely a parts car and there are fools who are willing to pay 9 grand for it?!?!?!

That is a lot for essentially a VIN # and hopefully matching #s.   A couple thousand (maybe more) hours to rebuild and $$$s for parts = big bucks

[hemi-hampton]

$5K I would think $500 is to much

$5K I would think $500 is to much

That was the 1st time it sold... it's currently sitting at 9k!

[tan top]

 Sad sight when you see chargers like this ,  bet that looked awesome when new ,  cant see anyone buying it & paying to get it restored !  only way I can see it happening & only way it would be worth while is if you can do all the work your self & get the car for free or next to nothing 
shame rare charger 

[bakerhillpins]

In the 2006 Jalopnik article it still looks pretty good.

Though I don't know for certain that the photo is the same vintage.  Shows how fast these things take a turn for the worst.

hemi-Hampton is saying that he thinks 5 hundred is too much. It sold before for 5 thousand.

[moparfan53]

 The listing has ended. 9 bids, final price $9,000.  Wow!  

One thing did surprise me. The car in such bad condition, but the steering wheel did not have the usual split / crack at the 12:00 position. 

[VegasCharger]

There's plenty of usable parts there to supersede $500.00. 

Steering Wheel
Hood
Rear End
Grille
Front Bumper
Rear Bumper
Glass
Radiator (for the #'s)
383 core
Power Steering Pump
Steering Column
Dash Frame
Dash components
Rear Seat cores
Driver's Bucket Seat core/tracks
Rear Windshield trim (lower corners alone bring big $$)
Front Windshield trim
Tail Panel trim
Seat Belt cores
A/C Heater box core

9K no way.

$500.00 sign my up.

Oh well, can't sign up because it SOLD for $9000.00!!
Go figure lol.

I agree.  

[Daytona R/T SE]

I'm still trying to figure out the back-up lights on this car...

In the rear valance...on a '68 ?

I'm still saying that POS aint worth $500 in my opinion.

Wow didn't even notice that, good catch Chris!

68's are in the tail light assemblies, 69's in the rear valance.

This beast has 4 back-up lamps lol.

I've seen allot of junk sell for under 10k that will cost double and sometimes triple to fix if they would of just spent more on a better car...I had a really solid 69 on Craigslist for 20 that needed no panel replacement and complete car and I was getting bashed, but then I see dummies bid on junk like this that's going cost way more to fix...

Yeah, I know what you mean, same thing happened to me. LEON.

[Kern Dog]

Really, Leon? I don't recall that you ever mentioned it...ever.

You're '69 on CL is definitely worth your asking price.

Back on the chopping block.

Judging by that carpet, a hazmat suit & respirator are a must.

I smell shill bidding on the 9k sale... 

[hemi-hampton]

If it's already sold for $5,400 & then $9,000 how can it be for sale again unless shill bidding is going on.

[moparfan53]

 Well... the $5,400 sale was back in 2015. Good question on the recent $9,000 sale though. Only two things I can see. Shill bidding as already mentioned, or the buyer backed out, as often happens.

Interesting to watch.

[hemi-hampton]

Maybe the $9k buyer looked at it in Person & then backed out.

[F8-4life]

What a pile.

[Alaskan_TA]

No need to see it in person.

Junk is junk.

The photos prove it.

[cbrestorations]

The buyers make the market, not the fake bidders lol. If he wants to sell that turd he needs to let it go for what people are willing to pay.

[VegasCharger]

Sold for $6900.00 this time around (we think). lol

Okay I give up. lol

I'm not chasing this one anymore.

[hemi-hampton]

that's like 5 or 6 times it's been sold by same seller

[70 sublime]

But it keeps getting cheaper to buy each time 

Wonder how low it will really go before a real person buys it
Must be getting close now at the $5000 price
