Good looking car.

Amazing survivor! Just bought it out of storage. All original condition, not perfect, but very good for a 48 year old car. All records since new, original owner bought it new here in Hobbs in 1972. 440 V8, automatic. Runs and drives well. Five brand new whitewall tires, changed fluids and filters, spark plugs, and hoses. I will continue to do more repairs and maintenance on it until sold. I just got clobbered with some medical bills and I need my money back out of this car. Includes a full Chrysler service manual on CD, look up the pdf’s on your computer. Clear NM title in my name.




Says temp control and heater core leak and needs carb adjustment. By pics needs a headliner and passenger headrest recovered.
 
NOT MINE

I am going to help out with posting the pics for this one.

OK folks, the photos in the FB ad (link here) are perfectly fine -- no idea why they are not posting properly above. Here are some more photos.

The resolution is not super-high, but the paint and chrome look very shiny. It'd be good to know if the car has been repainted. I also wonder about what seems to be a color mismatch or a discoloration on the top panel of the driver-side rear door but not on any of the other doors (EDIT, 02-20-2020: I see the same color difference on all 2 of the 3 other door panels, so I guess this is just the vinyl aging differential for top vs. bottom door panels). The car therefore requires eyes on the ground.

Assuming it is original, I don't think the asking price is unreasonable. AFAICT, the headliner does need replaced, the front and rear seats may or may not clean up (in which case re-upholstery may be called for -- which should not be terrible given the simple seam pattern), but the rest of the car looks very solid. The price seems to take into account the work needed on the heater core etc.

My headrests are the same color. They had the same spots. Scrubbing the **** out of them got rid of almost 90 % of that look.
Must be from the sun? Getting hit in the noontime to one spots for too many years.
I’m on the fence about the pros or diy headliner. Does the back window have to come out on 72s ? Great asking price. The 440 & road wheels are worth almost half of that.

CH41T2C209397 is also being advertised on CL. Here are a few more pictures we have not seen before, of the interior seen from the driver's side and of the documents that come with the car. I see some discoloration of the dashboard (@71Polara383 has a reasonably-priced one in the right color for anyone who buys this car and would be interested in changing it), a single crack on the steering wheel, and a small(wish) fabric tear on the driver's seat. Regardless, the car looks very solid.

I took this pic at work as a joke parked next to a co worker. You can see my headrest after a proper scrubbing. Leading me to believe it might come from a frequent spot to put your hand more than the rest of the pad. ?
It’s not perfect but blends in much better.
