The car is missing the fenders, hood and grille. No front discs. What remains? There are some valuable parts....
8 3/4" axle with 3.23 diff, manual trans hump, clutch and brake pedals and V8 K member with sway bar, LCAs with sway bar tabs. NICE passenger door.
RED car.
Good luck people.....

Will they sell it?

Also i like the BS torched into the quarter  :lol:

Getting a wrecking yard to pull a car OUT of the yard to sell is a very difficult proposition. The car and its title are officially "dead" so it really is like a resurrection.

This '71 was in a Pick N Pull yard about 3 1/2 hours from me. It was a factory Slant 6 car. I assume it's been crushed by now :(

The Charger above still having the manual floor shift pedal assembly is still worth a few bucks.  And atleast one good tail light.  And it looked to have the pedal dressup package.

I had pics somewhere  (I ll try to dig them up) of a 71 Charger at "regular" (ie. with Hondas, Chrysler Minivans) junkyard here in L.A. 3-4 years ago.

It was literally a just the shell. Nothing else was left. there was anotice that it was an insurance theft recovery. :rotz:

At least save the 4 sp pedals and hump.
Why would someone torch BS on the 1/4?

i just sold on ebay a couple weeks ago the clutch brake pedal assy from a 73 roadrunner it brought $228.00 and a 3.23 742 housing brought $275, i would snag those pedals in a second.

Two of us went up to Oroville, from Sacramento, to check out what's left on the Charger.
I got the sway bar, all the mounting hardware, and the lower control arms.
My friend got the pedal assembly, horns, dash wire harness, Proportioning valve assembly, and lines, and some other items that i didn't keep track of.

The 8 3/4 rear end is still there, the day i saw the car.
We checked, and it's an "open" rear end. NOT a sure grip. Don't know the ratio.

I will be rebuilding everything, and then i will be listing the parts, in the future, on the internet sites, that i frequent.

I never knew about this self serv yard before, other than the Pick-N-Pull's all over Northern California, and Carson City, & Sparks, in Nevada.

Wonder how many parts got by me, without knowing about this place.

The LCA's are now rebuilt and up for sale.
If anyone's interested in them, check out the "For Sale" section, here on this site.

YOU are welcome, Jim. I knew that these parts were not very common. That is why I posted it. I've seen your ads so I know the parts are destined to be nicely restored.
The axle ratio is a 3.23
