I know, I know, needle in haystack for C500, I mean Canada

[HKCharger]

There is a Charger 500 for sale in Canada, 1969 from a private individual, yes, I know, very needle-in-a-haystackish, but just got word and thought id share and shot in the dark hope someone else up north heard it as well.

[Ghoste]

It`d help if you could at least narrow it down to a region, it`s a biiiiiiig country.

Hey, do you know John Smith? He is from Canada!   

Just Kiddin' Eh!

[Ghoste]

As a matter of fact I do, but he drives a hot rodded antique Ford pickup.

[Moparmatty]

We're going to need a little bit more info then that so we can help you out.

[gers1968rt]

My friend has one but I don't think it's for sale. I saw him today and he didn't say anything about it.

I know of a few up there in Canada and for the right price I think both would be for sale. However I don't see many of them being willing to part for them on their own accord.

Of all the C500's that you have in your registry, do you have tabs on every owner?

Balance? Americans outnumber Canadians by 10:1!!
Although I do see a preponderance of Canucks on this forum. I wonder why?
My interpretation: Canadians are indoors for more of the year due to the cold, hence more computer time....

Not sure if you would call it keeping tabs. But calling, and sending Christmas cards, does that count? I can honestly only think of 2 HEMI 500's that I know of in Canada off the top of my head, and 3 440 powered 500's. And then of those none of those cars were sold new in Canada, the only 500 I know for sure that was sold in Canada is the HEMI 500 that Tim W has now.

Double Ditto...

Do you know what the difference is between a Canadian and an American?

A Canadian is an un-armed American with a government Health Plan

Canada is the flannel capital of the world

The hat would be kind of too big for the head wouldn't it?

[hemi68charger]

I love flannel.... 

[Beep Beep Dave]

So is that all we got to go on....a Canadian selling a Charger 500 that may or may not wear flannel.
How about some more details

I'm surprised there is actually a C500 left in Canada!
Most have been cherry picked for US consumption.

However, I know of two C500s in BC...the blue SE, and Carl's Hemi.
Plus a few in Alberta....
What others are there?

[Ghoste]

The coolest one is still here (in my own very biased opinion).

Is that in a museum? Or some rich bastard's garage??

are any of them for sale?

the guy that has that white one at RH says he knows of two others in Canada for sale...but wont give a price on that white one, says he bought it too high and will have to sit on it for a while....

[69_500]

Carls' 500 is in Canada. Gordon's B5 blue SE is in Canada. The first 500 is in Canada. there is a R4 red with black interior 440 car in Canada (used to be in FL). There are 2 other R4 red cars, in Canada as well that I can't post the owners names too, out of respect to the owners.

I'm sure you can give the provinces they are located in without problems.

[69bronzeT5]

Gordon's B5 blue SE is in Canada.

I know which one this is. I love the car, it looks great.

[Magnumcharger]

Yup...I got up close and personal with that one when I saw it in Red Deer a couple of years ago.
I can only fault the wheels as being questionable.....15 x 7 Magnum 500's with trim rings.
Yeah, I know trim rings were the '69 way, but on 15 x 7's it just doesn't look right.

Neither, that was taken in the shop at RM.  The car resides in Ontario but not exactly in a garage, more of a secret cleverly camoflaged storage.

[69_500]

So what are the chances of getting in to see the old Russo car? I mean I know I've  over it at least 4 different times at various shows, but wouldn't turn down the chance to see it again.

[Ghoste]

He tends to take it out unannounced, it was at the Nats last summer in the survivor tent this year.  Who knows?

[69_500]

I've talked to him a few times about trying to get up there to check out the other cars he has. Has a pretty nice superbird to go along with the 500.

[Ghoste]

Yes he does, I don't have any numbers on it though.  He sold off a lot of his collection a few years ago and changed the focus to survivor cars and it's become nicer for it IMO.  If you are ever up this way I'm pretty sure a visit could be arranged.

[69_500]

Yeah he also had a very nice 1970 Charger RT as well. I think it was a survivor car as well.

[Ghoste]

I'm not sure if he still has that car or not.  For that matter I'm not sure it was a survivor, but it was (is) very nice.

Yep, I got a lot of pictures of it in the summer. Carl's Hemi C500 isn't that far from me either.
