^ Interesting car... 600 horse in a clean '68 that needs a few things looked at - when you want, not when you have to...
Makes me ask, I don't think this is poorly bought at $50? For someone that wants a hassle free (assumption) Charger... Am I delusional?

I was kinda thinking the same thing. It looks pretty good. :scratchchin:

At $55k I think it would be worth it if:

- Is it all of the original OEM rust free sheet metal like the seller claims?
- Had the original numbers match drive train
- All the original (or original replacements) components were present. Radio, steering wheel, shifter, A/C underhood components, air cleaner

He never mentioned if the OEM trans. was 727 Auto or a 4 Speed.

If Auto then his "Has the extremely rare factory air conditioning option" comment is way off.

Also quote "Was built to take the wife and kids out for ice cream and cruising the highways."

What if I'm single, don't have any kids and I don't like ice cream :smilielol: :smilielol: :smilielol:

All in all it's a nice Charger :2thumbs:

A/C huh.  That's Hemi-rare, sunroof territory right there...

55K?????? LOL

http://sd.craigslist.org/cto/5058017294.html

600hp need dyno proof, please.  Tired of people saying they have x amount of power and u ask EM for dyno they tell u it's not needed.  For 55k it's on the high side let's be honest here....body is awesome shape we know that but at 55k the interior needs work bad among other places....our turbin resident was selling his 68 and very fair price I would buy his before this and it was a 318, but all original and all worked.

Yeah its a lot like the people who spout off an et for the car but they've never taken it to the strip.  Same when you ask those guys too, they don't need to, they "know".

Yeah they're basically insane on that one.  It s a very nice car but they will have it a long time.  It was formerly a project car of Bob Probert and after he passed away some Red Wings fan bought it and spent way too much finishing the car.  I believe he traded it in at that dealership so now they are likely in too deep as well.  All of them figuring the Probert ownership history makes the car worth what was put into it I guess.

Indeed, just from the pictures alone I'd still say it was un-finished.  It's missing it's radio, the hood and trunk don't line up, scratches on the dash facia, ect.

It looks like that may just be the reflection of the chrome map light housing.  I see it on my own car all the time.

This car is indeed far from finished though.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

This guy is out of his damn mind.   :eyes:

Saw this on moparts first, was just going to post.  This guy should know better.

skip68

I know he's a member here but dang.    :rotz:  
I think it's a great car, power windows, a.c. but it's real value is probably in the $12,000 to $14,000 range.  Possibly up to the $16K range    :rotz:  
These kinda ads are upsetting to see because they are from members.  It's rare to get a member asking stupid money for a car though it does happen and it's sad.   The way I see it is if you're a member then you know dam well what a car is worth ballpark or you can find out.  But you've got a basic idea.  To try for double the value or more shows you're trying to rip somebody off or take advantage over someone less knowledgeable.   I personally don't think we need members like this as it makes us look bad like we're all crooks.    :flame:
We should be able to flag for sale ads on our site.

God forbid he puts wheels and tires on it, paints it clear for the patina like he said.    Then he'd be wanting $35,000 for it.    :slap:   
He seems to be mostly using this site for profit.    :rotz:

Paint over the rust?   :shruggy: 

If he started painting it he'd be in it another $30k with the bodywork and then he'd be asking $100k.

I agree this sort of price is silly on community sites.  Put it on craigslist and see if you get any bites, fine.  Maybe you'll get lucky and sucker that thinks he'll get BJ numbers hemi payback.

Here and moparts, it just seems insulting.

skip68

I agree.   No price gouging.
