Sad to see people to cut up Demons & other hard to find Mopars!

The car in question was also listed on eBay for awhile if I remember right. I looked at it a few times times, in a couple different stages of assembly. I wish I could have picked it up, but I already have too many projects going and no room for another.

It's a damn shame that car was cut up. But, I also don't really understand why it didn't sell as a complete car. It was in good shape, wasn't overpriced, and would have been a great start for someone. But somehow or another it fell through the cracks, the owner tried pretty hard to sell it complete before he parted it. A lot harder than I've seen others try.

I hate to see decent cars parted out. But,I totally understand parting stuff that will cost significantly more to fix than its worth. Heck, I'm in the process of parting a super clean '74 Swinger because it was hit hard enough to tear one of the rear frame rails off the trunk pan. No rust on the car at all, but its bent, its at least a few inches out all the way to the doors. So I'm taking all of the suspension for one of my 71's, and the roof skin for the other. Just the way it goes sometimes.

Still, one of these days these cars will be harder to get ahold of because of it. Maybe some of you think that's great because your cars will be worth more, but as an E-body owner let me tell you its a pain in the ***. Everything costs more. A-bodies are nice because you can still get ahold of the cars, and a lot of the parts (including reproduction parts), for a lot less money. Makes it a ton easier to get into having, and driving, a muscle car.

I still see a decent number of A-bodies on the road as drivers, there aren't too many E-bodies around that people still drive daily. A-bodies are still affordable enough that people still feel like they can drive them, which to me is the whole point anyway. Why have a cool old muscle car if it just sits in the garage because you're afraid something will happen to it if its on the road?
