Looks like steves 70 sunroof challenger R/Ts back on the mecum block this coming march.I was wondering if anyone would want to get some of his old cars and memorabilia together in one place so everyone could see even a small part of his great collection together again?Just a thought.

The orange car with the black top? I have the Mopar Action issue with that car featured and it looks amazing. If money was no object I'd be after that one.

IIRC Dana Mecum "purchased" that car from SJ's Estate before any of the stuff went to auction...

The orange 71 was the Gary Unger car - correct? What was the pedigree behind the 70 car we are talking about here?

Seeing this car listed again makes me wonder what is going on. Someone paid over 600K for it last May, plus fees taxes etc, now less than a year later, they are selling it again at a Mecum auction?
Or is it some sort of game the auction is playing, phony bid it up and show it sold at an impressive price, but in reality it didn’t really sell at all?

I would have to assume your all over it since Dana Mecum owned the car.

I would believe this after seeing this same thing happen before with other cars

It's a Hemi car, with 15 inch wheels and it still has wheel arch molding?

Was it only 'Cudas that deleted the molding when 15" tires were optioned? (the "Hemi Fender")

hemi'cudas deleted the wheel lip mouldings during January 1970
HEMI Challenger R/Ts wheel lip mouldings were deleted later in the spring

the subject Challenger R/T was "scheduled" in October '69
