Delusional Charger sellers

I was looking at this car earlier today online since it definitely attracts my attention.  I have a WTB over on the Cars Wanted section for a 1968 R/T and have not been having much luck.  I have been reading the forums for months though and have been trying to spot the same types of things you guys do.  Maybe I can take a shot at this for why it may be too high in price. 

1.  Not sure if car has numbers matching driveline, or any info about what type of 440 is in the car (date code correct, late 70s 440, etc)
2.  Car has body filler in rear valence corners (I know people hate this one)
3.  No details of resto, to include any metal work or how it was done, if any
4.  Emblems and some other chrome (like around rear tail lights) have pitting
5.  Some items don't work, but are mentioned
6.  Fender tag codes restamped?  I'm not sure if this makes a difference as long as it matches broadcast sheet.

Anything else my novice eyes have missed?  I am very interested to get a car like this and was wondering what it may be worth.  Thanks for any help and correction.

 hello & welcome 68F
 nother case of , the closer you look at this car , the more you see wrong & or should not be on a car with this asking price IMO , some things are not much of a biggie & or  not expensive  to put right  ......  , but others like  ,  rear lower valance corners to quarters  shaped wrong & no seam .
  in the ebay picture  Deck lids off color ! prolly done it off the car     , also  may be poor application of the base coat ( too wet ) on  top of adjacent  panels ,it could just be the light ,  or maybe me being in body & paint for 28 years my eyes are playing  tricks on me & looking for something that's not really there   ,  looks okish  in video below ...  ,   in any case  not cheap if you have to pay a body / paint shop to put it right  .
also looks like 50 year old wiring  too , so it needs all new M&H harnesses , not cheap either  
awesome looking charger though in silver    

heres a video of the car when it was for sale last year

Thank you for the reply and the link to that video!  I had watched that one on YouTube months ago and never realized this was that car.  In it I don't think he ever mention if the car has a matching #s drivetrain, but the Ebay listing now states the motor is not, but the trans is.  The car seems to perform well in the video.

Although overpriced, it is neat to see a silver, no vinyl top, 4 speed, dana car.  Having been looking for a 68 R/T for quite awhile now I don't see too many cars like this pop up.

Do you think the fender tag has been restamped?  The actual codes look much clearer than the rest of the tag.  It almost even looks like the spot for the rear window defogger (N=8) was coded, but they forgot to overstamp that one. 

Any thought on what this car is realistically worth?

My favorite is "all the hard work is done".
Which often means the seller has pulled the car completely apart and scattered the parts throughout their garage.

[Kern Dog]

Ready for paint...
I have seen a number of primer covered cars that still need a whole lot of work. Dull finish primer can hide pretty bad bodywork!

This car is something I just came across. Look at the sign in the back wall.

[MoparMotel]

Not a Charger, but still belongs in the delusional thread.

'68 Hemi that needs a rebuild for $50,000.

Great you have the trim wrapped up and stored in the trunk of your 1974 Charger. You're just only about $17,000 over priced.

LMFAO

I don't like the way the Trunk Extensions were thrown in there & not welded right, The seam sealer would of helped hid that crappy job if he used it. Of course I don't like body color painted caster/camber access plates ect, ect. Worth $30K in my opinion. LEON.
