So my buddies and I picked up a 'new' car yesterday...

[Starfury]

Got up at 5:30 and drove out to this guy's place in BFE to pick up this car. I stumbled upon it while looking at a semi-wrecked '90 Mustang GT he also has (and I'm also getting for me). 1970 Challenger, straight with a few small dings and dents, intact interior, no motor/tranny in the car, nearly complete 440 conversion on the car, original rally wheels, R/T hood, two 440 blocks (one of which is a performance build and has never been run), two 727 trannys, a separate V8 rear, and innumerable small but valuable parts. How much? *drum roll* $4k!!!!!!! We basically stole this thing.

My friend has been looing for a decent mopar starter project for the past year. This is basically his dream come true. With little work, we could get it clean and on the street.

Oh, and that's the previous owner of the car in the pic, not any of us

Nice find, post some more pics......I love barn finds

Nice! And for $4k. I thought that only bought a wheel from an old school mopar.

Geez, did it come with a title and intact vins? Great find.

 

[Starfury]

Yes, yes, and an intact data plate to boot. It's even got current (non-op) registration.

More pics

Edit: forum was being finicky, so I'll post the rest of the pics later.

i hate you why'd he sell it for 4k????????? didn't know better?

 

[Starfury]

Kinda. He's moving to LA soon and he needs to get rid of all the crap on his property, including the project cars, ASAP. He originally picked it up from some asian guy at a swap meet for $1k back in the late 90's. It was a project car for him and his son, but his son found other things to do so it didn't get a lot of attention. I don't think he has a clue what the Mopar market is like. I got really lucky by being the first guy to really take a look at it. There was a local mechanic that was very interested as well, but the owner decided that I (and my buddy) had first dibs, and that he'd rather sell it to us than a mechanic.

He's also selling the '70 Chevelle in the pic for $8500, about 90% completed, including a 420hp ZZ383 motor that's never been fired. I'll post a couple pics of the 5.0 after I pick it up. The roof's done, but at $650 it's super cheap for a low mileage fox body.

That's the first stage of being banned by those who hate you.
