Hey guys I'm new hear and wanted to post a question about a recent charger I have come across. The charger is 1969 charger with a 318, automatic with ac air. I am looking for any info in relation to this. The car isn't running but it is 100% matching.

I'm curious what the value of one that's chewed up goes for. I'm thinking about buying it and dropping a 440 in it with a manual trans after I fix up all the rust areas wtc.

I look forward to being a part of this board!

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Could  you post a pic or two?  It'll help determine the value in the current condition. :popcrn:

                   we hunger for pics    :yesnod:   need to see it to try to value it, but 318 isn't the performance motor
                     
                                                   still air is a good thing  :Twocents:

Thanks everyone will do today. Any specific areas I should be targeting?

A shot of the whole car would be nice, and then a few pics of the trunk, frame rails, rear window, and maybe a few interior shots.  These are often the rusted out areas.

I venture to say that car will be worth more with the 440/4 speed than done 230 HP 318. Even with A/C.

Sounds to me like you're looking at this car as a potential high-return investment.  If the body is as "chewed" up as you say it is, you'll lose your shirt trying to get it in decent shape unless you can do all of the work yourself, and I guarantee that you will never make your money back on what you invest on it, let alone make a profit.  If you're intending to get into classic cars, be it for personal enjoyment, flipping for profit or whatever, buy the best car that you can find that needs the least amount of work...
