Besides missing a few windows, hood, engine, and some other things I'm sure... this looks to be workable for sure. That's sad. I wonder how long it has been wasting away?  :stomp:

 :walkaway:  Mine was abandoned March of 93 at 1820 N. Center (near 12 Mile) in Detroit before the fellow i would eventually buy her from picked her up at a Police auction. She'd been sold new in September of 70 at Hunter (now Oakland) Dodge at 101 W. 14 Mile. I did a bit of Sam Spade detective work after i received the current-at-the-time title on mine. I feel this car's pain hedkace, but thanks for the visual of how mine might have looked once :thumbsup: :walkaway:

Sorry to open old wounds there RusTy, thats a cool back story, at least yours is in good hands now :thumbsup:
 This one was on ebay quite some time ago. Hopefully this one made it into good hands also

I hope all of them make it to good hands!  More and more end up with people that have more money than brains. Good I guess, since they aren't crushed or left in a field, but are turned into more car and the prices skyrocket.

No problem, i don't believe mine can deteriorate much more than it already has as can be seen in my avatar so these days i'm picking up pieces that are missing. It's slow going as i'm limited by what can be budgeted any given month. Fortunately i'm next to Georgia where Y1 and Goodmark are based.  :cheers:

We are giving the owner of this fine machine a hard time for allowing it to deteriorate into this condition.  :pullinghair:  But--what if he/she got it in worse shape and has brought it back this far?  :undercar: This one could be 1 year away from becoming a trailer queen.  :roflsmiley:   j/k   Hey--we can always hope............................Oldschool

If it was just a practice run I can understand that, but some how on this Challenger I doubt that is what his plan was.
He could have at least given the poor E-Body some dignity and put in storage......


Poor thing left out in the street like that. Maybe the owner should go to work with a sign on his back saying "Plonker"  :crying:
