'70 Charger found

[Drache]

I found a '70 charger for sale and was wondering what some might think if it's worth the price (yes pictures are included). It has a 440 in it with an aftermarket 6pack. Vinyl top, 4 speed, bucket seats, one quarter panel needs abit of work, all new floors and truck, needs some interior work, and some TLC. He wants $10,000 Canadian for it and that's as low as I could get him from the $15,000 asking price.

P.S. Of course I would find a new hood and get rid of the gaudy looking scoop.

That car looks strangely familiar

Familiar?

Ya, I remember the white car and those black wheels some where, maybe the old D-C.com? Unless someone posted a pic of it or another similar car.

Well I'm not sure if it's been posted before. This car sits outside under a crappy cover year round. My dad's cousin who lives not far from the car offered the owner FREE storage in his heated shop but so far the owner just makes excuses

it looks like it has major rust issues that were covered up at one time.  clearly the quarters.   also under hood. sure, get a new hood but why did it rot out so bad.  also looks like it's starting on pass side rocker.  you can see it in the open door pic.  and is that rust around the screw holes in the sill plates?  plus the fact that it sits outside all year in Canada. 

conversely, I love the sixpack and the white/black wheels combo with that top.  something about that looks killer to me....

One quarter is pretty much brand new, only about a year old. The one showing is the one that needs the fixing. The hood rust I think was caused to him cutting the hole in the hood himself and the "scoop" not fitting properly. I personally think that $10,000 is a little much. Like I said though, the floors and the one quarter panel are only a year or two old and a good thing is there is no rust around the rear window or the windshield... although under that vinyl who knows!

looks nice

I like the intake, 10K is a so-so price and for that amount it shouldn't need extensive bodywork.

[Ghoste]

That's 10k Canadian so it's a little less than some of you might be thinking.

Drach, did you take a pic of the Fender Tag? I would love get a pic of it.

Looks like a nice car, but sitting outside will change that real soon.   Keep on the guy, maybe he'll give in and either sell or at least get it inside that heated garage you mentioned. Good Luck!

Well for 10,000 Canadian I say take it.  In a year that price will go up more.

Ohhh, and can I say it.... is that 7500 american.....LOL


VERY SORRY...

[70 Charger RT]

Drache.  I bought my 70 RT for $5500 CAD back in 2001 in Grand Prarie, AB.  It needed floors, trunk, quarters, fenders, interior, and a lot of other stuff, but it was an RT.  I ended up putting $40 K into it.  I'd say the car you're looking at if it needs all that metal TODAY is worth about $8000.  That being said, they are going up everyday and you would probably get your money back after you fix it up.

[Nupe]

Looks like a pretty cool car.   The things that makes me nervous are the slicks on the back and the fact it has a quickie white paint job.

As an old timer told me years ago:   "If it aint right, paint it white!" since white hides so many imperfections.

If I had the cash, I wouldn't think twice about buying it. I would already own it.

maybe this?

[Charger_Fan]

Man, with that big open plenum on the intake, I bet it has one hell of a bog off the line...looks cool though.

I think it's worth the price too!

That is the car I remember. I think.  I knew I wasn't crazy, just wrong on the year.

[Lightning]

I like the wheels. Aren't they truck wheels though?

[BigBlockSam]

i like the scoop.

[andy74]

i would be an owner,if i had the extra cash,and a place to put it!

[Afflyer]

[Drache]

P.S. Just remembered to, the grille doesn't even have a crack in it!  Well... at least none I could find lol
