How does that red Challenger R/T look in person? Is it something that needs a whole lot of metal work? It looks decent in the pictures.
I'm interested.
George
Good eye. I missed that myself.
Having said that.....there is a local guy who is the original owner of a 69 383 GTS hardtop. His car has one headlight bezel that is painted like the GT(S) and one that is painted like the Swinger. He said it was like that when he bought the car brand new, and...
Almost a dead-ringer to my old 69 Swinger 340 car.
I wonder why it was seized in the first place. Anyone know?
My price guess would be closer to $12K.
George
LOL!
No bud, I was CERTAIN that car wouldn't last a day for sale, and was predicting it would be sold before I got home from work that day.
I think it's a fantastic car, and worthy of a full restoration.
I guess I was wrong, but I don't understand why.
I'd love to own it myself but we're...
Thats a great car! I predict it will be sold before I get home from work this afternoon.
Best of Luck with the sale. I wish I could buy it.
Where in NY are you?
George
Yeah, you can hang onto it if you wish. They'll ask IF you have a title, and if not, no problem. If, on the other hand, you DO have a title for the car, I guarantee you will NOT get it back. LOL
Keep it in a safe place at home.
George
Doug is right. Even if there was a title from the previous owner that was transferred to the new owner, once you get to DMV to register the car, they take the title away and give you the paperwork needed for what they call a "VIN" check.
A VIN check is nothing more than a fellow who works at...
That car is really cool. Too far away from a street car for me to bring it back, but if you want a drag only car, this is an excellant opportunity.....complete with racing history and pictures/testimony from the builder.
All for $1700. Can't beat that with a stick.
George
Car is in Canaan, Connecticut.
Wish I had the scratch Moparclown. Looks pretty solid in the pictures. I want to start looking for a car to build for my now 13 year old son. It usually takes me two to three years to finish a car, and he'll be just about driving age if I start next fall. I just...
Those are THE coolest looking tail lights of any car ever produced in the history of the automobile.
I love those Coronets. Hopefully I'll own one some day.
George
I got $22,500 for my Gold 69 Swinger 340 with steering and brakes, without A/C about 2 years ago.
If the car is cherry, you'll get the money.
Post up some pix, and good luck with the sale.
George
If that was a 4 speed car, I'd trade for my 440 Dart convert straight up. Good luck with the sale. You built one HELL of a nice car there. You might want to reconsider unloading it! LOL
George
Damn thats a good buy guys. I paid $7000 for the same car, but the one I bought was completely disassembled and had to be trailered. This one runs and drives AND is a 4 speed.

Where did you get that air cleaner from? I want one for my 440. It looks like a stocker that was chromed.
Good...
Thats the same guy who sold a rough 67 GTS 383/auto to a member here on FABO who lives in Florida, BUT, he didn't disclose the real condition of the car, bent frame, mini tubbed, screwed up front end etc.
The dude is fulla ****. I saw that Hemi Dart at his house, and he wouldn't let me in his...
