Does anyone here own this car?  It looks like a very detailed replica but about 10-15k overpriced in my opinion.  I hope one day I'll have one that looks that nice!

More like 40K overpriced.

I think Hilpag tried to sell $8000.00 General Lees For $48K didn't they? I WISH somebody was selling a GL in that condition for $8K..I ain't found Nobody THAT stupid yet.

I'd bet a majority of the general lees that you actually see jumping and stunting were 318 cars

You're right. They liked the 318 cars because the front end wouldn't nose down as bad as the big blocks!

The orange paint on the lower door shell is awful...   makes me wonder how much more "attention to detail" will be found?

The TV show jumped a lot of 318 cars but they liked 383/440 cars for driving fast.

Yeah, lots of Chargers in that condition can be bought for $8000.

Don't know about the engines, but I do know they filled the trunks with concrete to balence the air borne car.

Yep  Thats why the quarters buckle so bad when they land

I think it is worth 23-28k.  It has no a/c, and a few other things that I don't like.  I don't want a reverse manual valve body and I would want a gear vendors for that price.  It's just too much for not being an original car.  $48,000 would almost get a 69 500.

thinking in that range too thinking more broad though like 22k to 30k!!!  He is one of the people that 'chargers' go up in value daily and is trying to churn a profit.  Cant blame the people for that.....

Viewing it as another custom as it should be, over all, the car isn't bad.  I'll take into consideration that at that price, your paying for 2 paint jobs, not just one.  He does mention it.  I do see that it needs a few things.  Door paint as mentioned, the horn needs to be rearranged so that the hoses are shorter.  I'm sure there might be a couple other odds and ends that need attention, but so do other cars in the same price range.  I've seen this one before, can't remember where exactly.  Even though it's priced on the higher end of the market, I think some clever bartering could get him into the proper price range.    The seller has had this one a while. It's one that I wouldn't overlook if I was in the market for one.

Car is nice! And on the show most of the jump cars were big blocks 400's or 440's (a few 383's) the small block cars just did not have the torque to get the car up to speed quick enough for the jumps, all the other set cars were small blocks 318 or 360. And as far as the weight used in the trunk the first one had concrete but the rest used weight plates (similar to tractor weights) That they had a rack welded to the cage and the weights were chained to the rack. (I have seen numerous pics from Don Schisler with this setup)

[Ram07]

Nice car...too bad it's got those silly stickers on it...


Not 48k nice tho!

[Hard Charger]

the color looks off also.

[tan top]

Push bar looks funky.

Nice condition, but still overpriced.

If 20K gets a number matching 68 RT 4 speed(driver quality) this is a 15k or so ride.

I agree. I was thinking $23,000-28,000 at first but now I'm thinking more like $20,000.

Are you referring to the paint strip on the lower interior side of the doors?

[skip68]

I'd say $26k to $28k.

The next time I'm Charger shopping I'm gonna look for one with the inner door shells painted wrong.  

Judging by this thread, it seems to lower the car's value by about $5-10 grand.    

[G-man]

Sounds like Im gonna try that one myself.
