Wow! What a beast, I love that thing

 

[commando1]

I am open to realistic offers.
Price: $77,000 obo

No, seriously....

 

[detmatt]

That is a stunner but no power vents...

 

[rexus31]

No, seriously....

Yup. Very cool build but he's not getting anywhere near that.

 

[commando1]

I hate this car. Give me $30k, and I'll build a better, less glitzy, one.

How do you really feel?

 

[DeMopuar]

If he needs a downpayment for a house -- he's screwed.........................

Never gonna get anywhere near the ask price for this. C bodies just don't command that kind of price no matter how nice they are. Sad but true, but I wish the guy all the luck in the world as it looks like it's been done very nice. It's just that, for that money, a guy with $70,000 is gonna buy a Cuda or 69 Camaro, or.......well, you get the picture. He better just keep it and enjoy it as it's an incredible long shot to get anyone to step up to the plate on this car........

 

[commando1]

How do you really feel?

I really feel like I need to talk to him. Alone.

 

[Wollfen]

That is a stunner but no power vents...

I bet if I had a Volkswagen beetle circa 1960's with power vents you would buy it

That blue is Too Modern for that car. And the wheels are all wrong. Not much of a Fan i suppose.

 

[commando1]

Well, he did it his way. I'll give him points for that.

 

[300rag]

"Hey honey, we might not be moving after all, let's live in the car"

 

[Dobalovr]

Ummm I can appreciate the amount of work that went into customizing this car and I am sure the little old lady from Victoria who no doubt only drove it to church would not approve but as I tell many customers....what you owe on a car is not what it is worth. If this guy had $90k USD to spend on this abortion why does he need money for a house....oh I know "Um honey about the down payment we were saving for a house"....

 

[Zymurgy]

He won't get half what he is asking, sorry dude put way too much money in this car.

 

[Dobalovr]

Going out on a limb here and gonna profile this one:

Location: Victoria BC favourite landing spot for British retirees
I'd rather be watching Benny Hill license plate surround also evidence of British background
Work obviously done by professional with all the "B/E/A" body usual suspects thus owner has the dream but not the skills or has read one too many Mopar Muscle mags. Obviously has the means to commision such a build (Where in Victoria I have no clue) but is living in an apartment with underground parking. Final analysis: British ExPat 40-60 years old who always liked the big American cars after driving Vauxhalls for years decided to build one using Mopar Muscle as a guide after buying car off estate of lady across the hall who passed away....Am i right or what?

You left out... "saw a blue 2011 Dodge truck at the dealer and said 'THAT is the color I shall paint my yank tank!'"

The builder convinced him Viper Blue makes it go faster...

 

[Slantsix]

I like that Viper Blue and that car. But that price... never... ever. Better pull that engine and drivetrain and swap it to B/E body and he gets more.
