1971 Challenger Convertible

[MopSquad]

Newly listed.  I have about a 55K budget.  What do you think? No body tag. Seems really well done.

good looking car

Nice car! Manual top? (No top lift switch).

Mine's a manual top , but they should have put the power top in with all the money they spent on that restoration! That car is worth every penny!

Thanks everyone!  I'll see if they want to deal or not.

Be careful dealing with Southern Motors - here is a recent experience.  http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,124845.0/topicseen.html

Thanks.  I read the whole thread.  I understand that even the nicest looking cars may have issues underneath the presentation, but this dealer appeared to have handled the situation very poorly - more than once.

Beautiful looking car, but very weary right now.

Wow! I read that whole thread, and after that I would not buy from this company.


I watched the video close and paused a lot looking at detail, car seems nice, maybe if some good bodyguy watch it, they mind see if anything looks suspicious. Saw something in the right trunk gutter to quarter corner when the trunk was open(bondo?), the edge that hold the quartertrim seems to straight maybe? My last one had bondo there and the quarter trim had a poor fit. Instrument panel is not detailed and the plastic recievers for the dowelpins in the windshield frame are missing. Thats all I found.

Does a 750 double pumper seem large for a 340?

650 would be a better application. The 750 can be tuned to run well, but not ideal.

Vacuum secondaries would be better for this automatic car.

I bought my car from them it had Bondo in the frame.

If the car was misrepresented, I would be upset and faulting the dealer. Otherwise, they just buy and sell cars -leaning on the honor system of the PO.

In the frame?! That's messed up.
