Nice Challenger, what do you think?
« on: December 10, 2012 - 08:06:08 AM »
What do you think? Depending on the interior needs sounds like a nice car. Not my taste in color but if I had the money would be great for my son.

"What do you think"  My first thought is why would you buy a Challenger?  Cuda's are better.  :poopoke:  :stirpot:  :bigsmile:  (All in good fun)

It looks like a nice car from the pictures, not one of my favorite colors or years though.  But it would make a nice driver car.  Not a bad starting price either.

I agree, seems overpriced for a 318 car, especially in that condition. My 2 cents.
1970 Plymouth 'Cuda.  Matching numbers 440 U Code, 4 speed pistol grip, Rallye dash, AM 8 Track, Shaker hood, 15 inch rallye wheels, Dana 60 4.10, Super Track Pak.  One of 134 - 440 "U" coupes codes built in 1970 and one of 100 - 440 Super Track Paks built in 1970.

"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.

I thought it would be a nice driver also but w/o seeing it you never know what is really wrong.

Exlackly until you see it up close and personal there is no way to determan the actual condition. Best of luck finding that E-body for your son  :thumbsup: They are out there
