He did acknowlege the incorrect grille here:
"correct grille comes with car.Car is original 440,Automatic."

Face it.  500 grille was UGLY.   

[tan top]

looks genuine ,  pity the guy did not post a picture of the fender tag

[hemigeno]

From the looks of the engine compartment, it was probably an F8 car originally.  Looks legit though. 

[BigBlockSam]

sorry i didn't put the link in. i was so tired when i started this thread. what do you guys think it should sell for? 

[PocketThunder]

Nice.  this will give me a very good indication of what my car is worth in ebay dollars..  its basically the same car in about the same condition except i dont have the original 440.

I'm with the Punk, the grille is not ugly.

[Charger_Fan]

A long time ago I thought the grille was ugly, but it's definitely grown on me...probably about the same time I discovered how rare those cars are.

NEITHER does he... 

I knew I'd start controversy w/ that comment on the grille, but I prefer the 69 grille over all of them... 

There is rumor about a '69 C500 in Merced Ca by the UHAUL there that was for sale YEARS ago.  The gent I bought my first '69 from went to see it but HATED the grille, and let it pass for $500 bucks.

Other then the grille change it looks like a 69 500. It has the typical backwindow

[BigBlockSam]

I discussed it with my wife this morning and  she left it up to me. i think i'm gonna pass on it. i think $25000 is a little to much for that car. lotsa rust, non original motor. if it was $20000 , i would be going to look at the car as we speak. rust is hard to fix correctly. i sure would luv to own a rare car like that one .

I don't know...  In today's market you may be suprised...  Watch her go for 30k... 

[Just 6T9 CHGR]

I asked for the full VIN for the registry & still no reply

[WINGMAN]

  I bet 40 K

Here is another green 69 charger 500 that has come out hiding

Man I'm off the board for another 2 weeks and 500's are coming out of the wood work.


I've probably been told about 8 new Charger 500's in the past few weeks in large thanks to the article that they put in the Winged Warriors Newsletter. Talked to an origional owner of a HEMI 500. That was interesting.

[PocketThunder]

21 hours left, i would bet there are no more bids on this car besides the sellers friend....

If you come across a B5 blue 500 SE with a build sheet PM me,  Al

[69_500]

I'm still on the look out for that ever elussive B5 blue SE 500 you mentioned AL. Do you still have the broadcast sheet for it? I don't have any vin info for a B5 SE car.

chris did he ever give you any information on the green car as to if it is a real 500 or not? I got a blurry photo of the fender tag. Tough to make out many of the codes, but it is a legit 500 from what I see. Only thing is he blocked off the last 4 digits to the VIN.

[nascarxx29]

Wasnt there a B5 blue SE 500 from Canada.My friend has A B5 blue AC car and kept up with how often he seen or knew of another B5 charger 500 This B5 is probably Als

Nope,not mine.Its got black wheels and a black stripe.  The Canadian SE has a later production number than mine beginning with a (2).The SE build sheet I have begins with something like 163.Ill dig it out after I move which should be soon.

[69_500]

Hey Al,

If you would when you do dig up the broadcast sheet, then I'd love to know if I could get a copy of it? I've been going over broadcast sheet's that I have and been noticing a few little odds and ends items. I always on the look out for the broadcast sheet for your car as well.
