I also haven't been able to track down my dads challenger unfortunately,  all I know is that it went from vegas to michigan in 2006.

Alright so here is the deal with the car, my dad and a friend went to look at it while I was out today, and I have some issues that I would like to discuss. The speedo doesn't work, turn signals don't work, needs various electrical work then as you can see, also has some bondo and a $750 paint job. Car apparently used to have a/c but does not have it now, and it has manual brakes. Guy is basically firm on 7500, will not negotiate no matter what you throw at him, I will post some pictures and you guys can tell me what you think. Honestly I wouldn't pay 7k for it.

Sounds like too many problems for 7K. I'd walk away. Some pictures would help give a better evaluation of the car.  :2thumbs:

Yeah I just won't pay that much for it. And also I am having trouble uploading pictures, they are too big but when I resize them they look terrible.

I don't think the electrical issues are that big a deal. Issues with the unibody can mount up quickly, though.

Don't know how far you want to travel or if you want to ship but the guy I bought my cuda from has a challenger that he's asking $15,500 for.  It's panther pink and I don't know too much about it other than it has a newly rebuilt engine, transmission etc...  The car is not restored by any means but definitely appears to be a driver.  He has two pics of it in this link for a different cuda. Ignore the cuda price though, he's asking a bunch for that but doesn't really want to sell that car so he has it priced high.

Looks pretty nice but the only thing that I really don't like is the color. Im not a panter pink guy, never was. I think Instead of buying a old mopar now, I may just buy something newer like a gen 4 camaro or something so I can save up and buy something really nice in the future. Id love to own one now but I thought about it and I truthfully think it will make more sense to buy one later on, something in really good condition. But I will still be searching for e-bodies, my dad really wants a 71 cuda or 70 challenger so I always keep an eye out for him, he is not so good at using computers.
