Not to speak poorly of the dead, but that POS's 1969 Charger went to auction...

...the one from this thread:  http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,88010.msg995087.html#msg995087


And specifically this post, went to auction last night... Sold for $12,000 + buyers fees (Total = $13,200) - Link: http://troutauctions.com/gallery21mar12a.htm





Guy died... Was in his mid-40s... Smelled like a brewery when I met with him twice... Absolutely out of balance and out of touch on his price, too...

I looked at a 1969 R/T this past winter (T7, black int./top) with a bad Dukes Orange repaint.

Owner was full of $h!^ with respect to the description. Asking $23,500, I figured the car was solid overall however, when I went to look at it, every body panel had rust through, somewhere.
The rear deck (panel between trunk and window) had a 1/4" of filler, chipping away. Floors had patches, rockers rotting, front fenders sculpted, trunk was gone on the side (could see pavement) and while the eng. was #s matching, the trans was not. Ohhh, and the owner forgot to say it did not run and the brakes were disassembled.  A rebuilt Dukes car that had been jumped, probably had less bondo...

I walked away at $16k, knowing the car would need $15k-$20k worth of work. Better to find a solid car to begin with...

Funny thing about the time spent looking at the car... He had some scrawny dude "drop by", who looked like he wanted to roll my friend and I. However, we're both 6 ft tall and large framed. He left as quickly as he arrived - still not sure why he dropped in... Anyways, the guy's house was a dump! Not even the front door of the house was right. It was a rotten old shack and the Charger was the only money this guy would ever see  

Guy kept emailing me to the point I said I'd offer him $9,500. He then said $14k was it, come and get it... I passed... Again, this car needed lots of work and with the questionable integrity displayed by the seller, I could not take him at his word

For the 1969 Registry, here is the VIN:


XS29L9B318558

It had a SPD of March, maybe the 12th...

Had Power front disc brakes on the Fender Tag, etc.

Yeah... I actually thought of bidding, but couldn't make the auction.

I would have given 5k to help settle the estate, maybe 7k...

The person who gave 13,200 will sink in that car, unless they go the Michelangelo w a bondo bucket, route...

I promise you the person who bought it does NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT CHARGERS he bought it becuase he thought it was an investment where he can sink XXX amount in to get 2(XXX) out of it.

looks to be a R/T SE   ,  good options too  , disc brakes  , drivers remote mirror , tic toc tack , rear defogger , AmFM radio , A/C , console  , no telling   if  it had a stripe originally  , or a right side mirror  , don't look the correct one from where i'm looking   shame no picture of the tag

Believe it was a V88 car, but would have to check my notes from when I looked over the car...

Did anyone save the pics? Link no longer works...
