I "saved" this 68 Charger 2 years ago. It has been a fun build so far. Long ways to go
I just spoke with the brothers who I bought my '68 Charger R/T from, later to trade it back to them. They just bought $19k worth of metal for the car, the only original tin is the roof!I "saved" this 68 Charger 2 years ago. It has been a fun build so far. Long ways to go

Easy to do. A buddy has 40k in metal for a 69 super bee I sold him that I thought was nice and a 70 chargerI just spoke with the brothers who I bought my '68 Charger R/T from, later to trade it back to them. They just bought $19k worth of metal for the car, the only original tin is the roof!
If I was a multi-millionaire I wouldI WANT TO SAVE THEM ALL!!!!!!
Damn, that 's really hard to look at some of these.
I agree. For me, it's a combination. Some look like people got hurt badly. Others, I can't imagine someone ruining a car that much, even thought they didn't know what they'd be worth some day. I.E., the Superbird on blocks.Damn, that 's really hard to look at some of these.
Amen, the "it's not for sale!"The ones that frost my cookies are the I'm gonna fix it up some day as it rots into oblivion.
Where was that at? Your inbox is fullwas at our local wrecking yard doing some scrounging. Here is a few pics from the mopar section! They have 80 acres of mostly old stuff.
Cool car.Don't want to hi-jack the thread and not making it into a sale thread, but this works both ways also. Everyone yells about the guy that won't sell or is going to fix some day, what about the guy THAT WANTS to sell, but no one wants it. What to do? Scrap? Try to sell parts, then get rid of a carcass. Who want's to save this one? '62 "300" Sport. 383 factory floor shift car, pushbutton delete panel. I've had it advertised several times. Was trying to sell as package deal with a Newport hdt. No one seems to want it. It is a perfect parts car for another '62, (I have most trim and grille) or build a Sport clone. The Newport is supposedly sold.

I offered the guy $35000 in 1998 and he would not entertain it at all. Been back several times since. He bought the car new and was a painter. I was told by coworkers he would drive the car around Washington NJ with his ladder tied to the roof and wing. There was also a crashed 1968 black 4 spd 426 Hemi charger in the garage .Taken 3 weeks ago. When I first saw it years ago there was no tree on the driver's side. 35000.00 cash couldn't buy it back then, I'm going to fix it !!!!!!

She would ask to borrow your car...Hmm. She looks cute, but I don't think I want to meet her, given her apparent driving history.
