Pretty car.

Nice looking car but, why go to the trouble of making it look so correct and then put magnum 500's on it?  If it is a real Hemicar, and I am assuming it is, those wheels were not an option as it would have had 15" wheels from the factory! It even looks to have a repro "Red Top" size 27 battery in it. Nice!  Nothing screws up a nice restoration like putting an Interstate or some other brand of modern battery in it

I will admit, the Magnum 500's look great on this car but ............................................... More "bling" for the seller, I guess.

As a rarity within rarities it'll be interesting to see where the bids actually go.

Wow one hot ride. This color combo or white with red stripe on a hemi c500 4 gear ohh man dream car.

It will be interesting for sure to see what this car brings.  It seems that outside of the Mopar world Charger 500's are not really understood.  Most "collectors" that aren't hardcore Mopar look towards the wing cars when the money starts escalating.  There have been many times when people have asked me why I f@#ked up the beautiful grille on a Charger.
If this car brings money that's even in the ballpark of what they are suggesting I think I know where a certain Green Hemi Charger 500 may end up....

This will be interesting.   The couple Hemi C500's that sold at the Scottsdale auctions brought pretty big money.    This one seems nicer, certainly fresher, with a great rare color.   It might be a "bid goes on car", but I think it will sell for good money.

Thanks for pointing that out, it slipped by me too. I saw the orange and Hemi and jumped to conclusions that it was that one also.

What a cool car!

Someone correct me if I am wrong but isn't this the car that S. Fox picked up after letting his white Hemi 500 go? If it is wonder what he has his eye on now.
