A 74 with only 3,500 miles!

[E5 Charger]

There is a 74 on ebay with only 3,500 original miles on it! Can his story be true? It would be great to document this car with photos to help us with our restorations.

The engine compartment look pretty dirty for 3,500 mile and put away?

Why would somebody do that, park a practically new vehicle? 
I'd have to guess it must involve some sort of personal tragedy

I'd be interested to hear, as they say, the rest of the story...

Wow!   hopefully this auction was a mistake of a Buy it Now price of 125k....

Seller says 15 years since last outing, certainly looks like about 15 years worth of dust since the last washing.

Hmmm. It's been listed twice. My link doesn't have a buy it now price. The earlier listing says the listing was ended by the seller because the item is no longer available. Or they realized the $125,000 was a mistake and was scaring bidders away.

Is it to much effort to clean the car before selling it?

You can always clean it, but you can't put the dirt back on to prove it's been in the barn for years.    A car like this you need to go see it in person.    The internet pics are just eye candy anyway.    High dollar barn classics are often left this way before being sold.

If was original dust from 74, I'd say leave it for the purist - but the dust is only 15 years old.
