This 70 is already in AUstralia.
Seems a fair price for one already here. I ummed and arghed about buying it as the price is not too bad for an RT.
Nice looking car but hmm.

what MTD said  :yesnod:  just looking at the lower real valance &  rear quarters, walk away find another car ! lower & middle quarters are bowing out & wrong shape, it is so obvious its wrong who knows whats going on with the rest of the car under the shiny orange paint. if you can get it cheap enough, & dont mind redoing the body & with what ever is going on with the lower rear valance & quarters, might be a good project its an original R/T & already in Oz ,   98k seems a lot  :shruggy:

  What your seeing is it's been bumped. After rebuilding mine the same thing happened. If you drive much it's going to happen sadly. A once mid-size Charger is now a monster in today's down sized parking spaces. Jerks bump/ding and scrape, it's why I'm not going nuts restoring the body. (I paid 1500.00 27 years ago and it's been my primary driver mostly.) My new valance is smacked in and new bumper is pushed over. Hell I used to watch my ex-mother in law repeatedly bash her K car's door into the side of my Charger trying to dent it.  :lol:

Don't look bumped, looks like cheap repo parts used on a rust bucket with that lower rear valance & corner piece. Corner piece on passenger side looks a inch longer then on drivers' side with valance curving downwards a inch to meet it. I hate repo parts & just think what's all hiding under that shiny nice new paint. After all my Years restoring cars, I'd take a solid rust-free car over any cheap repro garbage Resto. :Twocents:  :shruggy:  :slap:

Not a bad looking Charger. If I was interested I would certainly look at it in person to judge the actual condition. You know the old saying caveat emptor. Number one rule in my book. I have bought stuff on-line that I wouldn't have touched with a ten foot pole if I could have seen it in person. Thank God I'm only talking a few parts. Like Jefferson said it's already on the continent. Big big saving right there. Not to mention the headaches.
Good luck!

I would agree with most of the comments above. Looks like alot of poor fitting or home made panels probably covered in alot of body filler.
