Looking at an E body 70 challenger

Yes it’s legit was there for 3 hours looking at it. Apparently the car has been sitting a few years the guy thought it needed a fuel pump put one in and now it flooded at the carb.
I’m sure it will run fine once the carb is fixed. But havnt heard it run. I thought since it was not an RT and kind of plain Jane and the dash was cracked it might not be worth as much as I thought. I ran the carb code “1970”and casting numbers on side of block. Also 70
Gotta check vin on Engine oil pan rail. now that I know where it is. Thought originally the engine should have been orange, but read that some were blue.
Took me a bit to get the price down from 21k to 18k that he said was the lowest he would take.
I thought 17k was the number for me.
I’m sure he will take if I whip out the cash.
It’s not advertised anywhere just word of mouth. Anyway gonna call him tomorrow and make an offer after checking Engine vin#.
