There were some pictures on this site afew years ago (I think) of a Charger that had been shortened like that. Hpefully it's the same car because I'd hate to see that happen twice.

That thing's been for sale for a long time.  It was built in the 1980s or something if I recall. 
 

I wouldn't be shocked if it just got parted out.  That's half a 1969 Charger in workable-looking components.

Exactly what I was thinking..

I am another, TO EACH HIS OWN, guy. It's a shame only if you DON'T like it. I kind of do.. I always liked the lowered Torino looking roof line and I bet he took some weight out of the car as well.  The only thing I believe he should have rethought was the low hinge location on the front clip. I think it needs to be made higher to allow the nose to tilt much closer to 90*..

That said, I would not think of doing that to a Charger, but who knows. Maybe it was 2 complete wrecks that were sort of saved...  :shruggy:  I wonder how it handles with the shorter wheel base..

Have ya priced a '69 Charger grille assembly lately, or rear window stainless trim, or taillight parts, or front buckets, or dashboard, etc? 

There's plenty of parts to scavenge on that thing.

I think if were to paint a pock quarter window on, it would really improve the looks.

Hey guys, look at it this way. It is one less complete Charger in existence. Maybe that means the Charger in your garage is worth a little more now..  :shruggy:

Any way you look at it now is just plain too late. What is done is done.. At least it wasn't jumped for a dumb movie and completely destroyed!!   :D

George Barris claims affiliation with 5 famous cars for every 1 that he actually had anything to do with designing.  His biggest claim to fame was the '60s batmobile (He started with a modified 50's Lincoln concept car). 

Most of the rest of his claims . . . crap.  He has built a bunch of inaccurate clones that have sometimes been given official blessings for use in the car show circuit, nothing more. 

In the case of the GL, he's had nothing to do with it EVER except building a bad replica and selling merchandise with it.
