Just found this in my Grandpa's barn - he apparently had a crazy idea none of knew about
most of the work done still needs paint on back 1/2
kind of a shame when you think about it - found the back half of the charger behind the shop under a tarp it's got a 1600 vw motor & no moter infront, it's turned into trunkspace

you gatta see this thing - it's beyond words- $5500 or trade for a '67-'68 thunderbird or toyota corona

Fantastic!!! Worlds number one 12 cyl Charger

[maxwellwedge]

Enumclaw  - That's where Kasey Kane is from. See what happens to your brain when you jump from a Mopar to a Ford to a Toyota and soon to a Chevy?

[nvrbdn]

im wondering what his next car with the front of the vw and the back of the charger will look like mabey for 5000 he will throw in the back half of the charger with the drive line? mabey get a deal?

[John_Kunkel]

I'd like to read the replies he's getting from that ad.

[vancamp]

I thought the german influence on the charger was a little more recent

[MoparManJim]

Oh god.....what a trainwreck

Me no see train..   

It's more along the lines of charger/bug wreck.

I always wondered what a VW and a charger would look like if they mated.. now I know 

[jaak]

    Thats hilarious!  Looks like a Charger shittin' out a VW.

All the VW purists out there must be pissed.

[The70RT]

It must be a joke, he will take a Toyota Corona in trade...wtf.

[bakerhillpins]

Just dropped over here to post on this very subject. I think I am going to cry.. WTH???    

[Tilar]

I guess after laughing at this thing, All I can say is "PARTS".

[twodko]

Lose!

[471_Magnum]

Photo chopped. Funny though.

[MoparManJim]

Photo chopped. Funny though.

Thats what i was thinking also, I would sure love to see the roof view though.

[jaak]

Photo chopped. Funny though.

Yeah I think it's photoshopped too.... ad does say '68 Charger, but it has 69 fender in pic.

[bull]

Someone needs to get the VIN for Chris...

[vancamp]

if you look close it has 5 spoke cragars all around but bugs were a weird size 4 bolt, im agreeing its a photoshop job

[TylerCharger69]

Corona??   I thought that was Corolla!!!   I sure hope that's not real....That's just sinful

[XS29L9Bxxxxxx]

Wife thought it was "cute"  What does she know 

[Richard Cranium]

Corona??   I thought that was Corolla!!!   I sure hope that's not real....That's just sinful

Obviously, someone has had one too many Coronas.

[BigBlackDodge]

They made Corona's too.......my sister had one years ago.


BBD

[Bobs69]

they advertise it as a 68 but the fenders are not 68.  Then again nothing is right about it.  If it's real ...............................the fella that built it must have been drinking paint or something.

[doctor4766]

Please someone local to that car go take a look and if it really does exist, slap the guy around some.
And just for a laugh get some more pics

[Cooter]

Years ago, they sold wheels adapters so you could run the more popualr wheel lug patterns...

Take someone with you so they can vedio you when slapping the guy around.

she probably thought you were cute at one time also 

[bakerhillpins]

I thought that maybe the back half of the charger was so far gone that they chopped off the charger at the rear window and just grafted the bodywork from the bug onto the charger frame. 

[471_Magnum]

There is a reason he only gives a profile shot. Those two cars don't come close in any dimension other than height.  You'd have to take about a 12" section out of the center line of a charger to get the width close.

Again, nice photo chop.

                        right like hooking a round piece of wood to a rectangle piece. no way to match.

Or split the bug back end and weld in some width. Though there would need to be a lot of metalwork to integrate the top of the fender from the body of the charger into the flat side of the beetle.

Still I do think it's a shop too...

That was pretty funny.

Shadow on rear fender/quarter doesn't look wright. The sale pending in the title is a good way to bail out if somebody really wants to see it.

[The70RT]

He...it's a joke, there is no way the fenders would stick out at all with the bug being so much narrower.

[vancamp]

He...it's a joke, there is no way the fenders would stick out at all with the bug being so much narrower.

actually i dont think its that much smaller believe it or not i believe the hub to hub width on a beetle is 53" and total width with fenders is about  61"

[Hemidog]

"you gatta see this thing - it's beyond words"

Definitely. 

[billssuperbird]

   

[DustinSimmonds]

Such a shame, It had so much potential.  Ha, but yea I sure hope that is "photo-chopped." No Charger should ever have to suffer such and atrocity! 

[Bobs69]

If it photoshoped or not the guy should be shot with balls of his own shit for thinking of it!

[bull]

I emailed the guy but never heard back. I know it's BS so I nominated the guy for "Best of Craigslist" a couple times.

[Dave Kanofsky]

This is a crime against nature, even as a photochop!

[ACUDANUT]

 Whats next, a 2nd gen Charger with a 2.2 or with a Chevy 4.3 ??

[Ponch ®]

Looks like a redneck Panamera.

I think if looks a litte harder out behind the shop he'll find some other "stuff" because the old dude was on some good s#!t.....

[Ponch ®]

way to ruin a Beetle...

[TXcharger70]

maybe that is what gave BMW this inspiration
