    Challenger I saw yesterday
    « on: February 09, 2011 - 10:18:42 PM »
    Very rust free. Looks like its been sitting there a long time.
    I bet it ends up on the East coast or Europe in a few years.

    That's where all the CA. Mopars are now. Because it's so expensive out here to live.

    So cool to see one that still has the flat hood.  :thumbsup:

    Was it a 318 car or a 383 2 barrel?

    I asked the guy there but the owner wasn't there. The guy asked me what do you think it's worth?

    I said 10-12 since its a good solid project to start with. I remember where its at. This car was very well hidden. Looks like original paint on it.

    Pretty sure it was a 318 but I never asked.

    Speaking on behalf of the East coast we would gladly take it off your hands! Back off Europe we called dibs first!  :bigsmile:

    Here's another doomed Mopar.

    This one is right near me. It's been sitting there for about 17 years just like it is. I wished he would at least cover it up better.

    Many a person has asked him if he will sell it and went home empty handed. I even offered to do the metal work and bodywork for a reasonable price. No seems to be his favorite word regarding this car.

    I don't think it will be long before he must sell it. He's been in bad health the last time I spoke with him. But who knows...Only him and his beer.
