Not sure what I paid for it (remember, it was the 70's  :smilielol:) , but drove it over 10 years and it had about 16K when I bought it. I got hit by a drunk driver. Sadly it trashed the car!! :villagers:

 Ditto....not drunk just stupid, but in a way it saved the car for 25+ years otherwise I'd of drove it in the ground or traded it off when they weren't bringing anything.

1971 Challenger in 1987.  Only $1500 for a 318 car with a whole trailer full of parts from a 70 R/T SE. I wish I still had that trailer full of parts.

   Bought my 71 cuda in July 1977.  Got parked in the garage for 20 years but is slowly getting restored. Currently being prepped for a new paint job.
