    Yeah, sitting over the bare ground for so long, this might be one of those cars that as soon as you start trying to pull it out it tears in half. No telling how rotten the floors and subframe are.

    That reminds me, didn't Devil have a few Barracudas that one of them tore in half (Literally!) when they went to tow it?  :clueless:

     :wow:  :jumping:
    Awesome find!!
    Love these pics. Such a rarity to find now adays  :thumbsup:
    Relly interested to see the condition of the frame most of all.
    Like someone has already said, all the parts are being made to restore this beauty.
    That is assuming that she doesn't become two seperate R/T Challengers as she is dragged out of there   :scared:
    My fingers are crossed.
     If the car will be sold, I hope the owner is realistic about the price, based off the condition of it,
     Keep us posted man.
    Best of luck  :cheers:

    You say you saw this car? Was it for sale or just under all the backyard pics of cars not for sale?

    No update on this one. Haven't heard from the owner after leaving info with his father. My buddy is meaning to get back up that way again and follow up.
