Waiting for Vegascharger to circle "it"... :popcrn:

My rule of thumb is 40K+ on shiny Chargers is when I circle the cheapo bolt-on battery terminals. :cheers:

This one is pretty much ruined if you ask me. The Corvette is a much lighter car than a charger and I would suspect that the conversion will only bring trouble of fast wear and tare.

I can't imagine what I would try to do with this car.  Non-mopar frame, so how is it set up for suspension (I know it talks the Corvette thing but still....)  Two engines, one sounds like a smogger and one an RV engine so both need a fair amount of work, plus the basic car body has all the usual rust problems.  :shruggy: :shruggy: :shruggy:

Oh, I almost forgot, no title!

Don't know if the seller is delusional price wise, but he calls this car a pro touring. It has 10" drum brakes all around. So the 440 and the big wheels make it a pro touring?

I get the impression that seller is using "pro touring" as a buzz word. Like a keyword list in a Craiglist search.

Definitely nothing "pro touring" about the stock suspension, drum brakes, and the skinny, blingy wheels.

I'd guess it still has the small block torsion bars under it. They put in a 440, but left the small brakes and cheapened out on the suspension. That's the opposite of pro touring.

Not to be overly negative, it is a nice 70 though. Just throw the wheels in the trash and sort some details out and it would be great.

That price has to be either a typo or a joke.

I saw that one on Facebook.  The seller is Cleveland Power and Performance, the guys who sell a lot of Hellcat, Hemi, Coyote and LS engine and transmission running pallets.  They're getting torn apart in their Facebook ad for the ridiculous price and of course trying to defend it.  It isn't the first basket case they've listed for a fortune.

They really think the "clean title" aspect has a lot of value in a 50 year old car.   ::) :shruggy:

The only way to defend the price in the ad is saying that you were under the influence of a mind altering substance while posting it... and then change it immediately to $2000.

Is it me with my poor eyesight or does the quarter panel body line appear missing? Smoothed over?  :shruggy:

If it's there, it doesn't seem crisp at all.

Maybe they used 69 RR rear patch panels?

It's there, but faint.

Bad block sanding/prep work is my guess.
