That mopar ponderosa guy is in Prior Lake so maybe he is involved.  I dont know him or have ever met him but who knows.

I would give my left of something I was born with for the 69 in question........... I would give both of them for that red  68 R/t .
I agree. Amen brother. That 68 is much much nicer.
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Why is it, when ppl put cars on ebay they refuse to wash it or even wipe the dust off the interior??? That car would prolly be 10 times better if they just washed the dirt off and god forbid buff out the paint and bring back the shine. Or at the very least vacuum the floors before u take pics. Sorry I'm a bit OCD about some things..LOL.

That's also Cody's website!  :2thumbs:

25K seems too high for this market.

Problem with a car like that is it looks so original but really needs to be restored.  So because it's a "barn find"  it'll sell on the high end.  But look at it close and you can see it needs body work and paint and the entire engine compartment pulled and detailed and that stuff is really expensive.  The other 68 and 70 Charger on this thread are the way to go because they were cleaned up and look original and great.  That's a nice car, but because of what it is I'll bet if you add the selling price and then what it'll cost to restore it, when it's all done it'll cost more than if someone just bought a nice already restored Charger.

Or make it into a convertable Daytona painted orange with an 01 on the side and put 22" rims all round  :stirthepot:

The first guy that sold it mentioned rust in the trunk around the back window. This guy doesn't show the trunk pan or mention any rust it at all  :shruggy:

100% correct. In todays market that car would be totally under water if someone actually did pay 25K for it -  and gave it the full restoration it deserves....hmmm, maybe that's why its being sold?

However, if you forget about the money and bought the car because you have your heart and soul in it, plan to keep it forever and enjoy the car... then you'll never be upside down!  :D

I'm surprised the bidding on this only went up to $20,000 I guess the owner is trying to get back what he paid for it in 2008. The market looks weak right now. This was an original R/T

According to the Q&A at the bottom, since it didnt sell the owner will have it restored.

I think 20K could be the ceiling for this car because of the condition......take the 20K offer and run! :scratchchin:

The car needs a complete restoration. Its is way to rough to be left unrestored as a survivor quality show car. Based on the high bid, potential buyers were thinking the same thing as me.  :Twocents:

Thats what i paid for my car and its pretty much the exact same thing as this car except for the color.
