    No broadcast sheet found in car.

    Additional pictures and info at 70Challenger.com

    If I were to keep the car, the top three things I would want to do are:
    >Replace dash, has usual cracking at center speaker.  Is not hideous, but not correct.
    >Replace automatic with manual transmission.
    >Paint.  Has small crack at left side of trunk lid (sub-frame connectors stopped frame twisting), normal driver wear and tear over 10 years.
    >>NOTE:  Above does NOT have to be done to drive and enjoy, but would be my top three if I kept it.

    Why am I selling?  Arthritis in hands is making working on it painful.  I enjoy working on the car, however it has become something I do not look foward to any longer.  Better to walk away and let someone else that can do the work have a chance.

    Car is located in Temecula, California.

    Asking $55,000   Serious inquires only, NO TRADES.

    Harts56,
    I wish you luck on selling your Challenger. Your car is gorgeous. I love the color. If we were in the market for another car this one would be at the top of our list. We are selling our Cuda's too.  I understand were you are coming from on selling. My husband hurts a lot and it is hard sometimes for him to do the things he loves to do. When you get older your body does not want to work like it did. Your brain still does but not your body. Good luck and hope you feel better.

    I am lucky that in So. Cal. we have pretty warm weather most of the year.  Seems like when it gets cooler (even 60 degrees!) my fingers feel like sausages and are painful.

    But on the good side - until I sell, I will drive it every weekend and still go to shows!  I enjoy the car and the people that I meet at the shows and at forums like this one!

    Thanks everybody!  John
