I don't know?  Maybe the asking prices but I wouldn't be surprised if actual selling prices still show a premium for XS Chargers.

I think that the XS Cars are still commanding a price premium over XP Cars ? at least by those who do supposedly track selling/reported prices like Hagerty, NADA guides,  etc.?
That is what their valuation tools show anyways ? XS are always higher than XP Cars.

Yes, that car is certainly a roach, but I'm not sure if the seller is delusional, I didn't see a crazy buy it now price, the current bidder at 1K? unless he is friends with a rep from AMD, he is the delusional one.  :Twocents:

:iagree: :iagree: This will end up being a delusional BUYER. Ebay seller does not have a reserve or a "buy it now" in his/her listing.

A lot of metal missing but don't think he's delusional, 6k is cheap for a shell, think he tried to put a realistic price on it. Will probably sell for less as people in florida tend to spend less than up north.

Agree. Plus for 500 bucks you get a 440 and 727. They probably will need a rebuild but still

the car has some other truck chassis welded to the bottom of it, the skins of the body appear to be rotted from the inside out which is typical for a florida car.

I thought the underside looks strange!

It looks like it has been through a fire.   :eek2:

LOL, maybe it is a little overpriced.   At one time or another it was popular to put charger's on 4x4 frames, although it didn't look like they'd gone that way with this one.  Still, amazes me when I see basket cases sell for anything, much less 7000 or more.  If it were me, I would send it to the scrapper, but to someone else, I'm sure they can rebuild it to make their dream car.

I am starting to think that maybe we are the delusional ones because obviously these cars can sell for these outrages stupid amounts of money. we know what they're worth And how much it takes to restore one, but they control the market. If  someone is willing to pay $15,000 for a Vin number, then it's
is worth$15000.  We live in the age of Barrett Jackson, gas monkey garage and all these car build shows where they throw insane amounts of money at car parts like it's not nothing. At the end of the line there's some guy that's got more money then sense and can pay whatever it takes to get it done.   I should've never sold that second charger of mine. hundred percent complete except for the carburetor 383 68 charger. Probably is worth 20,000 now

You have a point worth considering.

I've always wondered how many of the overpriced/overpaid basket cases just move from one property to another.
Once it's satisfied someone's dream of owning a Charger, albeit nearly scrap, it moves to the next guys garage/yard/field until that owner figures out what they are up against.

Certainly possible. After all, we have a bunch of completely empty, date code 440 blocks in the for sale section for $1500 each.

I'm with Strip Delete here.  Lots of these cars just change hands and then continue to circle the drain.

Nice car but for that kind of money at least have the correct front end of a 1970 Charger instead of a 68 Charger. You're buying crowd is reduced when you customize to your liking.

Seats 6??? I only see 5 :shruggy:

charger chris

I think in a lot of case poeple really dont realize how much parts are and that they have to find and look for them. So in a lot of cases they have the car they just payed all this money for. And it just sits because they are so  overwhelm and don't know where to start. So they end reselling the car to try to get there money back out of it or try to make a buck on it.
