Sweet :  And there is a guy that loves money more than the car. Would YOU sell this car?  Also, if this is a true HEMI car shouldn't there be a Dana 60 under there? Wish the pics would allow you to count the leaves in the springs too...........?? Should be an extra leaf on passenger side. And he did not post a pic of the fender tag. Sorry, just a couple "red" flags there ?

What a great find.    :drool:   It's almost too hard to believe that those are still sitting in barns.  I guess I need to get out and look in more barns......     :cheers:    :cooldancing:

Man that is beautiful. I have got to get me a barn. Maybe some homing barn owls with transmitters on them that will travel from barn to barn transmitting the images back to me.

Yes there should especially with a super trac pack option. I would sell it, because I would be afraid to drive it. With the money I could build a couple of really nice clones and still have money left over. BUt if you noticed this guy has several cars for sale in addition to this one.

Well, they DID say 'With collector car values increasing at an alarming rate...'.

It would be alarming to me if someone bid on this car, thinking it is original.  Three fender tags, eh?  Hmm...Wonder if one of them has a special order code for the 8-3/4 rear?

Very cool car!!   I think the "barn find" thing is just some serious marketing.   Check out his other cars for sale, another "barn find" 70 black hemicuda, along with some other very cool cars.   I wouldn't be so quick to judge the car as fake just because it has an 8.75 vs the dana it should have being a Super Track Pack car.   The car has obviously had some "show" things done to it, including the chrome rearend, color keyed grill and rubber bumpers.   Seller says they have the broadcast sheet.   Billboard was added, which you certainly can't argue with !!   My buddies have been busting my chops to add one to this car.

I would never put the billboards on that car. It is much too sweet. In my opinion the billboards are very distracting. Don't shoot its just my opinion.
