jim, perhaps you need to treat yourself to a 1969 charger for your birthday?
free shipping!
Ouch! that car is HOT! Can you imagine being able to buy something like that for yourself!?
there is something wrong with the price, this cant be under 5K, i want it BAD!!
Nice one Linda. Pretty sure I'm not cool enough to drive that though. You on the other hand...
That's the current high bid Skinny, I'm sure it will go higher in the final moments.
yeah, this is what i need to pick ryley up in after school.
i would get a licence to drive that car:>)
warn me when that happens.
Nice restoration. Probably very fast (in a straight line). I bet it handles like a tractor. (/bimmerhead)
I was at the track this weekend with a bunch of historic NASCARS, mostly from the 90s, so there's very little about them that's "stock". I didn't run at the same time as any of them, but a buddy was in a race with some of them (and a random assortment of other race cars). He had a Miata that was mostly stock other than having the interior stripped, stiffer shocks and racing slicks. He qualified ahead of some the backmarkers of the NASCAR group. It was interesting to see this 137 HP car try to cope with 700 HP cars when the green flag dropped.
bet it jumps well
I can speak from first hand (virtual reality) experience based on some time ago downloading every racing demo I could get my hands on that that Dodge Charger, while fast as all get out, and super nice looking, handles like shit.
i like them like art, this red baby with a nice monocrome painting, + white stripe, maybe an imi knobel.....Skinnys Mopar and Modern Art Palace, maybe MoMo for short or MMAP
Real sports car buffs always sneered at Detroit’s muscle cars for their lack of subtlety, which boiled down to a Euro/American dichotomy between the Old World road course and the US format in which oval racing (all left turns) was the big step up from straight-line drag racing. I actually saw the NASCAR greats run back in 1969 or 70 at the Michigan 400, David Pearson, Richard Petty, Cale Yarborough… those cars were still closely related to the street models but the oil crisis and new safety regulations changed all that by the mid-70s. All of which is to say that, while the present vehicle is nice enough, I’d hold out for a Hemi.
As far as roundy round stuff goes, I like the sprint cars. Those guys are insane. Maybe I'm partial because I like three-wheeling too.
Top Gear had some footage today of some British touring car racing. Apparently there was an American invasion of Falcons, Mustangs, Camaros, mixing it up with the Cortinas, Minis, Capris, etc. I may have to seek out some DVDs.
this is for sale. 13k obo
well now it's up to 9k, and 7 hours left. i hope lovevibe is not bidding...the bidder id is hidden. our last muscle car was not the best purchase.
i am buying my dream car when i retire (if i retire)
retire now and buy that car
If you buy a used car it's always a good idea to re-tire.
Winning bid on the Charger: $10,100.00.
a nice price IMHO if the car was as good as it looks

ours was a hardtop and if we still owed it we could prob have re-coup our investment a few years back but it was a lemon:<((
