IIRC, there were more than a few people who didn't believe him as his car was becoming more widely known of.

When I talked to Dean couple years ago there was only one known to exist.  IIRC, he thought it was comical no one knew about his.  I think he has one or two other real hemi cars.  :shruggy:



I know he also has the T5 '69 Hemi 4spd Super Track Pack R/T.

If the Ghost isn't to your liking, you could always go for Keith's other 1st gen Hemi, since he has that listed as well.... at a mere fraction of the Ghost's price!

The '66 HEMI oil pan is basically a "187" c-body pan about 3/8' deeper with no stamped number.

Speaking for myself alone... If it were my car... I would have turned it over to Chrysler when they made the offer. Not for the money, but for the simple fact that it is a museum piece, and that is exactly where it belongs. You have to know that sooner or later it will come to this anyway so...
Well, on the brighter side... there are a number of collectors out there who would love to have this vehicle in there collection... people with real money, that don't car about cost or today's economy. You know... the kind of guys that spend $3,000,000 dollars on a sports car and then drive it into a lake :lol: Ok, maybe not those fools... but the fact remains that there are those with the means and the desire... so we shall see... I wish them the best of luck.

Charger440RDN

Barrett Jackson is only 2 months away, why not wait until then to sell it? Those people have play money to throw around so you never know how high the bidding can go. Barrett Jackson is the only place he might get 1 Million. Then again not even original hemi wing cars are selling for 1 mil so I don't see this car bringing that.  :lol:

Ghoste

Most of the people who can afford to pay too much for a car didn't get that money by paying too much for things. (just a thought)

ACUDANUT

 It's worth that much because it has the original FACTORY air still in the tires.  :smilielol:

This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

Theres actually 3 made in that color, one of the members on here has it for sale, its a hemi car as well...Its in the "realistic" price range,

"There were only two built with this color and this one is amazing."

I don't know why he keeps saying that. I've told him about Dean's mauve hemi car but he denied it. Always bugs me how people are told somewhere along the line that "x of their car are known to exist", and they quickly turn that around into "x were built".

I know of lots of mauve '66 Chargers by the way, we've had seven that I've known about just here in Spokane (the Lilac City) just in the last ten years.

I agree the car does need to be preserved as is and go to a museum

I think he meant 2 hemi cars in that color, at least thats what dean explained to me. There are 3 mauve 66 hemi cars known to exist. Probably hundreds of them in small blocks.

TUFCAT

I couldn't tell which one made me sicker.... the blurriness of his pictures,  OR THE PRICE!!

Ghoste

If it wasn't the price, then it doesn't matter my friend.

GPULLER

I think the car is worth the asking price to someone.  Just like 11 million for a Hemi Cuda that someone had to have. 
We saw the car at Mopars in the Park this past June in Farmington MN.  It was interesting to talk to Keith about the history of the car, unfortunately he is having some health problems and wants to get rid of some cars he owns.  He told me that the car was appraised at 4 million, he thought it should be worth at least million, Cora wants 5 mill. 
I don't think the quality of the pictures on eBay is going to discourage someone from buying the car.  The car has been everywhere and in enough magazines people know the condition.
My wife and I each got to take turns in the drivers seat, I thought that was really cool.






lisiecki1

don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful car, I just don't think that particular ebay ad will generate that kind of money.  For that kind of money I think Barrett-Jackson would be a better idea than Egay.

Ghoste

Yopu're right Gpuller, it may be worth that to someone.  After all, Cora would pay 5 million for it and the appraiser would pay 4 million so Keith's price is a steal.  IF you are that one special someone who wants it one million dollars badly.  :D


(I'm not so my opinion is nothing)

Keith and Cora are still co-owners.  When I said that he thinks it should be worth at least a million, Cora thinks they should go for the 4 million plus.
All I know is... I aint got the million!
