NO WAY!  That's all I have to say.
I agree with you REV!! My 2 have been a part of my life for over 25 years and I don't know what I would do with out them! Plus I don't think I could replace them! The shape they are in (no rust!!) nor the options they have on them! (we added A LOT of options off cars in the junk yards!!) so my 71 especially is FULLY loaded!! so I doubt I could replace it!!!

I have had a lot of offers for my car(dont know how many were real money or just fishing) but the way I look at it is,the car is paid for,only going up in value every year,probably the rarest thing I will ever have in my life,could not replace it if I sold it,so I would have to say............NOOOOOOOOOWAY JOSE!!!!!!!!!!Barrett Jackson type money might make me think for a minute,but it would have to be enough to buy a hemi car,or at least a six pack car.just my :2cents:

As tempting as that would be, (and I would have to think long and hard about it), I believe the answer would still be no.

Unless I could sell the 68 SS, buy back Jessica, and keep the GTX.

You can't replace your first (semi) performance Mopar.  I know quite a few people who would sell their current Mopars, to get their first one back.  I won't make their same mistake.

The first is like a stepping stone to wet your appetite. Not many marry their first girlfriend.

the guy I talked to was serious , he kept looking and eventually found another R/T SE 4 spd car & paid large for it which if I had sold mine would have been exactly what I would have done just spent the $$ & probably more to buy a similar car so the $$ would not have changed my life at all , I just decide to let the other guy do the work to find another car instead of me  :bigsmile:
