Isn't this the Charger that was found upside down in a ravine?

It's a real shame. So is warriorbass selling it or what? And what were you referring to Trav?

Those floors are about as nice as you can get though!  :icon_smile_cool:

I remember that car also. What a sad case in deed as stated by the present owner. More like crush the damn thing and be done w/it. Trying to sell vin tags/numbers. Can you say jail time included. Wish I was closer to the dumbass so I slap him personally. Good usable tail panel, somebody needs to clue the guy in that they are making repos now and that won he has is a basket case along w/the rest of the pile of rust thats faded yellow!

No it is not I. I no longer have it. I GAVE it to him as it was GIVEN to me.  If I would have had the tools, I would have cut the floors out and used them for mine as everything is toast.

Well, no one is bidding. Doesn't this mean it's our obligation to run it up to $4 million? :icon_smile_tongue:

If someone does indeed buy that & use the tags on a rebody, watch the VIN come back as stolen. :D
That's probably why it ended up in the ravine in the first place.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

The way that I was told the story...the guy who said that I could have it explained how the car GOT in the ravine. he said that a guy was running the winding road and before there had been a guardrail there the dude drove the car off the hill and straight into the ravine. I have heard other stories but I have no idea as this is what I was told. I heard a story of the car trying to be repo'd but that was hearsay...the only one who really knows why the car was there is the person who put it there and I have no clue who that was... :pity:

The drivetrain is gone. I didn't see any interior? How was it being driven? Looks like it had skins for tires too. Looks like it was stripped somewhat and dumped to me.  :shruggy:

Yeah my parents did that 15-20 year ago with my moms old 69 Lemans...   :brickwall:  She was sick of that car because she had been driving it since high school and it just kept on going.  There was nothing really wrong with it but when we moved they didnt want to take it to they gave the motor to my uncle and let it roll down into a ravine.  Im assuming they knew the guys who owns the land?   :shruggy:  Its probably still there but id hate to see what kind of shape its in.  I dont understand the logic in that at all, it would have made a really fun driver...

I know what you mean. It was somewhat a norm back in the day. I remember fishing along rivers when I was a kid and the farmers would line the river banks with cars to help with the erosion. I remember fishing on the hood of an ole coupe and the black paint got hot as hell in the sun so I on the lighter colored ones. People would jump up and down on the roofs to make an indention so you wouldn't slide down to the water.I remember when my dad set lines on front windshield posts when they were half submerged

I seem to remember a thread about someone here finding this car upside down in a ravine or creek bed or something. Guess he got it out?

The guy selling it ripped me off on some parts a couple of years ago. Ebay actually stepped up and refunded my money minus their "deductible". I personally think he's a dirt bag, but that's just my opinion.

according to local legend, the car was running/driving when sent down the ravine and then after it was flipped, they went in and used the hood to drage the motor/trans up the hill and back to their house. When I found it, there were no tires, rims, axles etc. The person who owns the land said that the car had been sitting down there for a Loooooooonnng time. It shows..I had accepted it because it was given to me. Once I gave it away, you see wherre it is now... :eyes:

Is it too late to put it back into the ravine?

When I was a kid, there was a couple of cars in the woods on an abandoned road near my house.  we always played near them and talked about how they got there.  the "legend" was they were racing and crashed and caught fire.  they were so far gone that you could not even tell what they were.  For kids, it's a great conversation piece to find in the woods and play on/talk about...

To save you all the trouble of seeing the similarities, IT IS the same car. Not sure if the person on this board is selling it, but it is that car that was posted about.

And the quote Bull posted, is pretty bold by the seller. Does he know that is illegal?

The seller contacted me by email and I explained what I know about VINs. he has been very helpful in getting me parts for mine and I have not had a beef with him. he is searching or a passenger door for me right now and has never given me any reason to doubt his integrity so I never have. I gave him that car since he transported the 68 to me with no add'l cost. I thought it was great because I have had no way to provide my own transport.
