Vehicle Detail
I have had this car since 2004 and will describe it to the very best of my ability. I am not real eager to sell, but other things have priorities. This is a 1969 dodge charger, was a factory ac car, but ac is long gone. I have a non ac heater box that will go with the car, but it is not installed. I never drove the car in cold weather so I never installed it. So no heat, no air. Original engine was a 383 2 barrell. Now has a 1969 440 hp motor. Rear end is a 3:55 suregrip, automatic transmission. vin matches title, dash trunk lip and radiator support. clean, clear title. Ok good points. Engine was rebuilt and I have put just over 2000 miles on it. transmission was rebuilt as well. Brand new sure grip rear end installed last summer. I have about 500 miles on it. Gas tank , sending unit, all lines are new. Car has 4 wheel drum brakes, all new lines, booster, master cylinder and brake components. Could stop better, but it is a drum brake car. All the wiring is new from Year one. that includes dash harness rear light harness , forward light harness, all of them. I spent lotsa money on factory wiring for this car. Alternator, starter, hp manifolds, power steering pump, radiator, are all new and also from year one. Paint is about 2 years old. It isnt a show car paint job, but is very presentable. I had trunk pan , extensions, and rear crossmember replaced. Both rear quarters were replaced, prior to my ownership. vaccum headlights work as they should. I installed dynamat on the door panels and floor boards as well as new carpert and new center console. Exhaust system was installed last year with dynamax mufflers. Not a concourse factory job, but its ok. Bad points. The front end is original and has not been changed, at least to not my knowledge. The car drives straight without any issues, but it was my intent to have it upgraded eventually. It needs a rear leaf spring shackle bushing installed on the drivers side. The interior is all original. and looks ok. I would probably only replace the seat covers and the headligner. There is a mouse hole under the passenger side sunvisor. Look at the pics and you can tell. Not bad, but to be perfect, they need changed, but perfectly fine for me now as a driver car. missing back cover on passenger seat. Door panels are nice as well as the door pads, especially for 45 years old. windows all roll up and down fine, except the right rear. It works, but needs guided with your hand. It has a bad nylon roller, Not a big issue, expecially being a general lee, but wanted to point it out. radio is an am radio and is for looks. I wanted the factory appearance, but really have no desire for am radio. It does leak some oil and the power steering box recently started leaking, Iam pretty sure from the rear seal needs replaced. Not a major issue for as often as I drive the car, but I wanted to point them out. General lee stuff. It has high quality decals installed a year ago, push bar and roll bar are an exact match from the show. Cb is the cobra 78x as the original general lees, it is mounted but not wired to the car. has the correct tear drop antenna. Wheels are american racing vecors 8.5 on the rear with 245 60 r 15 bfg and 15x7 up front running 235 60 r 15. Tires are all in good shape, Same 2000 miles on them. The sunvisors were signed by john schneider on the drivers side and tom wopat on the passenger side. The tail lights are from a Original tv series general lee and have the plaque mounted on them from when they were purchased from warner bros. Has the dixie horn, but factory horn is still functional. All in all it is a very nice driver General Lee that gets tons of attention and blows away other cars at the car shows. It is a blast for sure. I usually just drive it around locally, and have not driven it on any where more than a 60 mile round trip, so whether or not you can pick it up and drive it home across country. Your guess is as good as mine. I wouldnt, but thats just me. I think I have covered it pretty well, althogh I am sure Iam forgetting something. if you have any questions or need additional pics please email me. I require a $250 dollar non refundable deposit immediately after the auction closes. If you want to inspect it before you bid, that is fine, and I encourage it. Prefer cash pickup in person, but if you have it shipped, I will not release the car until the entire purchase price clears the issuers bank.

My intent is to fix this , unfortunately the car has a 3/8 fuel line inlet hemi style fuel pump and all I can find locally is a 5/16, therefore. I have to special order a new one. Its leaking from the threaded fuel nipple that screws into the inlet of the pump. Not much, but enough for me to hesistate on the auction. I have no worries starting it up or small drives, but I want to fix it before I drive it a whole lot more than that. I am going to order the fuel pump and hopefully recieve it and have it installed by auction end , but cannot guarantee it. Iam kind of on the fence to end the auction and fix and relist or just leave this update. I am going to notify all bidders who have bid above reserve so they may cancel their bids if they wish. The issue is very minor and so easy to fix, but one that definately need addressed. I reserve the right to end this auction early for any reason without prisor notice or reason. thanksOn Jul-30-13 at 09:20:10 PDT, seller added the following information: I can be reached at 937-728-7385 if you have additional questions. call or textOn Jul-30-13 at 11:56:57 PDT, seller added the following information: I tried to upload a video of the car today on youtube. I just shot it an hour ago. hopefully it works and gives everyone a better perspective of the car. thanks if it doesnt work. i titled it my lee, and is under user name razor45177. either one should pull the video up. http://www.youtube.com/my_videosOn Jul-30-13 at 19:29:54 PDT, seller added the following information: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS8aQMSqgQ0&feature=player_embedded
