Unbelievably great deal. I'm jealous !
Is that the original paint job?



...original color combo...

...it was repainted about 20 years ago....the paint job looks better in the pictures than up close...it is a 10-20 footer paint wise...

Amazing find!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice that you already have a plan to restore, not flip it  :2thumbs: Nice to see not everyone is out to gouge the mopar faithfull. I agree with the other guy, you should have bought a powerball ticket, you just might have won the lottery twice!  :ylsuper:

....I have had the car home only a few hours and have already had 3 offers for the car, all more than I paid and 2 are substantially higher than I paid....I bought it to keep it here in New Castle where it has always been.....there are 2 RT convertibles here, both have been here since new and will probably remain here for years to come...

...PS...I would rather gamble my money on MOPARS  :roflsmiley:

...and besides, my youngest granddaughter cried when she had to get out of the car to go home....she played in the car for a LONG TIME ....I guess it's hers in 15 more years :bigsmile:

Wow! I would of loved to have found the Challenger even in the shape it's in. My first choice for color and a vert to. I'm glad someone in the hobby got it and not someone trying to make a quick buck. Good deals are still out there you just have to be at the right place at the right time.
