Might not be a bad deal.

Bet that thing came from the coast, and a trip to the dip tank wouldn't result in much left to work with.

Awful expensive parts car. The rusted roof has me thinking this thing was on the gulf coast most of its life. When the fog rolls in it smells and tastes like a salt brine.

might be good for drag racing as it's already been the equivalent of acid dipped 🤣🍻 Pure stock drags maybe? but that 440 would have to go frown stirthepot

$3,500 Roadkill-type vehicle. $10k is stupid. Then again, so are people.


Earning every penny of that moderator paycheck.

I'm going to go against the grain here. Yes, the roof is a big deal but the frame and floors look intact and it appears complete. Send me the links of running and driving (or close to driving) big block e-bodies for under $10K. Prices have shifted and for better or worse, this car will likely sell pretty quick.

I think this is the problem with the market now.

Prices for cars are all over the place and very subjective.

I've looked for a complete Challenger project that doesn't even run and I can't find one under 10k.
But if I tried to sell one I would get offers for 1k.

If the rust was just the roof under the vinyl top and nothing more serious than typical floors and trunk then I would go close to 10k.

But I would heave to see it on person.
