Chally..is it worth it..
« on: December 12, 2006 - 02:22:34 PM »
I'm tring to convince my dad to spend the money and buy a challey. its a 70 or 71 can't remember anyways its rough..needs fenders and maybe quarters frame rails are good needs floor pans. its a 340 4spd pistol grip car..magnum 500 wheels not #s matching for 4500..is that a good deal..i mean its nasty looking it was yellow but someone painted over it with black spray paint..so i mean if you cleaned it up and sprayed primer on it it'd look tons better in its self.

Sounds like it could be a decent deal depending on the body work needed.  Got any pics?

Sounds like the price may be a touch steep, but a picture is worth a thousand words, DF...

I'm leaning Matts way.....a "tad" too much IMO, though it is a 70/71....photos would definitely help.

It's not growing trees by any chance is it?  :dunno: :lol2:

Well when you say yer dad and you. I'll bet your dad is thinking about how much it will eat into his wallet. Lots of work from your discription. 15k right off the top for purchase and fixing quarters and fenders. He may be wiser then you think. Try a different approach and find a car under 6k that doesnt need all that work. And ask him again.
