Just wondering I'm looking for a cheaper charger and would this be good to buy to build with a fairly complete parts car? its close to my home in Wisconsin. Or should I keep waiting and saving for a better one? Let me know what you think. Thanks. :2thumbs:

Well there is afew things wrong with his add. 1 look at the so called push bar mounts NONE of the original cars an mounts like these at all. 2nd look at the numbers on the doors again wrong size (watch the tv show and you'll see the size of the numbers) plus if it was used for barn crash shots then where are the dings at? paint scratches and what at?  :shruggy:   

Something tells me earlier replica.

I this economy more and more deals are popping up.  I would suggest you get a car as close to finish as you can possibly afford.  Many projects are available because people lost interest and or finances to complete.  If you can get a car you can drive and enjoy at the same time you are making improvments, you are less likely to lose interest :Twocents:

That GL isn't even close to legit.

I meant legit as in an actual car and not a scam
