Wish i had asked him to send me the pics.

A local came to buy my automatic console last night showed me the 69 he bought.

318 every panel rotten including floors. Torsion bar crossmember up threw the floor. All 4 rails toast. Maybe firewall is ok and some of the inner framing behind the doors. he said even the A pillars are all rotten.

i almost want to turn this into a guessing game the amount he paid lol.

Meanwhile, the repro industry still insists that a whole '68-70 Charger unibody would not be a big seller . . .

I will let this go today and post the price he paid tonight or tomorrow am.

Complete car, or ???  I have a 318 shell, and I mean shell, that needs....everything.  Almost every panel currently reproduced would be required.  Glass has been shot out.  No trim.  Nothing.  But the title is clean.  Buddy is kind of wanting it out of his field, so it's probably time to unload it.  Been thinking of playing a similar game as this thread and throw it on ebay and see where the bidding stops.


If the thread-game Charger is "complete", then I guess $4500.

I really don't understand the complaints about high prices.

If individuals are trading their own property at whatever price the market will bear, that's capitalism and free trade at work, right? Isn't that what diehard "'Murica" types are all about?

If rusted out shells are regularly trading at 10k or whatever now, that's not overpriced, that what the current value is.

If the car was overpriced, it wouldn't sell.

Inflation exists. Supply and demand exists. Stuff costs more than it used to.

Paying 250 grand for a Daytona would have been considered insane 25 years ago. Or paying any money at all for a rusty 2nd gen shell.

Collector cars appreciate, it happens. At least they seem to be staying ahead of inflation.

How much would you guys pay for front-row tickets to a Justin Beiber concert?  

How much would you pay to be smuggled across the Mexican border into the USA?  

   
A person's price bid for something is only relevant if they are a serious buyer.
