    lottery ticket did not pan out.

    LOVE the Challenger. It would be a no brainer for me too.

    I almost sold it after the Mopar Nationals to a couple guys from Sweden. They were SERIOUS buyers who talked about a big car show they have there once a year with 60,000 cars???

    I have relisted the car on Craigslist. I am prepared for the scammers and hope the way the ad is worded will scare off the flippers!!!

    If the Canadian dollar wasn't so low I would be on my way.

    Nice: I wouldn't have hesitated about that swap either.

    I will post the whole story in the appropriate thread once the car is home in my driveway. Guys asked about the info and I posted a couple just so you could see "Why" I would sell the Cuda for a Challenger. Don't want to keep posting on the For Sale thread about the Challenger. But I've known the owner for years and the car just came up for sale since he's 84 and can no longer drive. He originally purchased the car AUGUST OF 1970!!!

    THE CUDA IS STILL FOR SALE!!

    drop it to 28-29k and sell before the chall is gone :money:

    its tough to buy a non numbers matching car for 35k  knowing you will have to sink 25k more into it.Might aswell buy a car thats done. :dunno:

    And LOSE MONEY???  The best part of knowing the car and owner of the Challenger for over 30 years is I have a deposit on the car, he knows the situation and offered to store the car till I have the funds.

    The price on the car is "Firm" doesn't mean I won't take a little less. I've turned down $32k 3 times and have multiple offers over $30k. They're close to what it will take but I'm not going to lose ANY money on the Cuda.

    My wife wants me to keep the Cuda AND buy the Challenger. I just don't have a place to store both.

    I think your wife has a pretty good crystal ball too.

    I know the guy Ron bought the Cuda from, and he is the Guru of Mopars...specifically E-bodies in the Pittsburgh area.  I say hold to your number...if I was in the market, it'd be mine at that price!
