Spoke to them again today and it looks like they will sell it for under $3,000.  maybe $2,500ish..... what do you guys think? 

I might just go get it?  :dunno:

Looks like it has the pedal assembly and stuff that you will need for your R/T so do it to it pruit! If you keep up like this your are going to have to add on to your shop Cody lol.

If you do want to part it out....I know a guy who needs a....

I took more pictures today..... let me know if anyone wants it?  I might be able to get it down in the $2,500 range for you.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Jeepers, it has some fugly roof rust but overall looks like it would be a good purchase for parts.

The car will not go on the market for a few days, so we have a few days to try and find it a good home.

PS, that's a magnet on the front fenders in pictures 7590 and 7591.  The fenders look good to me.

Do you think a new roof skin will pretty much take care of the major portion of the rust? Other than the lower A pillar most of the bad rust is in the roof itself. I agree about the fenders, from the pics they look pretty good.

Pretty easy to spend other money....   In any case, if you do get it, I'd be interested in the steering wheel (if it has a black center).  It's a lot more rust than I'd want to tackle at this point in my life.

Not to worry about me ended up 50 with not money... I'm 35 and already there!

Well, it's not my car.  I was just trying to help other Mopar fans out.  The car will be for sale in a few days, I just have first shot at buying it.  Not much money for a real deal 70 Challenger!

 After looking at the additional pics, I still stand behind my opinion that it definitely is NO parts car.
 Without a doubt that can be fixed.
 I would tackle that.........after I get off my @ss and finish mine first of course  :walkaway:
We canot afford to start parting out cars with great potential.
 A parts car is usually pretty apparent to those who know what they are looking at.
 Hope you can get this one to a good home CODY  :thumbsup:

I wonder how bad the cowl is....with the bottom of the A-pillar looking like that, one would wonder.  ???  The area of trunk just between the trunk pan and the rear seat support looks like it might need some investigating... plus I wonder what the trunk pan looks like.  :dunno:


But still, it does look fixable...  :grinyes:
