Seems a pretty nice car, and definitely enough red...

Seems high for a column auto with driver quality paint. I suspect the red/red is too much red for some as well. The $30k flip is off-putting.

I seem to remember seeing this car when listed at the 29k price and gave a passing thoughts to it then

And Im a sucker for red interior car. And the column auto wouldnt have stopped me in any way shape or form

But at 59k owner is dreaming.

Even a 4 speed wouldn’t justify that price.

I love the red interior, but I can see how it would be a bit jarring to some, a bit too much red.

Thats sorta funny because that red interior is the first interior ive seen in a while I could not deal with. Seems were are the very opposite ends of the mopars we like and would own.

The base clear kills it for me also. I have a base clear old mopar.... worst mistake I ever made.

Two different cars? Or just different stages in the resto?

One photo shows black blower motor, then another silver -
One photo two speed wiper motor, then another 3 speed-
Fuel filter /lines are different -
ECS system in one photo and not in the other?

Pictures 1 & 2 of the engine bay shots should be in one of those "Find the 24 differences" deals. Plug wires, decal location on the core support, alternator belt, overflow hose location, heater hoses, etc...

The car sold at mecum 6 months ago for $34k plus $4080 online fees plus 2k shipping
Maybe you should follow The sales Reports before making un educated guesses.
As far as condition of the car it’s second to non in the solidness and the paint is almost perfect.
These forums are getting to many dreamers that still think you can buy these car for cheap money.
But hey just my personal opinion.

I saw the car in person at Mecum, it sold for too much money then! tsk

If the car sold for $34K in front of a broad audience, the real dreaming is asking nearly double 6 months later. Cool car, I have nothing against it.
