Vehicle Detail

This Charger is an R/T clone car, originally a 318. The car was brought here from New Mexico and sat in a warehouse for many years until I bought it 2 yrs ago. The car had exceptionally little rust, but was hit in a couple places requiring the passenger side quarter to be replaced with a new AMD piece. The left front fender was replaced with an original NOS fender as well as an NOS lower front valence. It also appears to have had some quarter panel work done early on in it's life on the drivers side, probably from a fender bender. The entire car was sandblasted except outer body panels which were taken down to steel. Everything was professionally repaired and refinished using quality products. The car was painted professionally in a downdraft booth, and looks very nice. This car is not a trailer queen, but a very very nice car you can actually drive and enjoy. The chrome trim on the car was all excellent due to the western climate so it was cleaned up and retained. The stainless trim was all hand polished on a professional buffing system. The grill is near perfect, but I did put new outer trim on it due to the anodizing fading. The bumpers are new AMD. I do have new front bumperettes, which go with the car. I just thought it looked cleaner without it. The drivetrain is out of an original 69 Charger 383 HP and runs and drives super. It is all original and correct down to the carb, distributor, exhaust manifolds, etc.. It has a brand new radiator which looks stock but is not original. Even though the air cleaner pie plate says 440 Magnum it is indeed a 383 Magnum. It has been professionally aligned, and drives perfectly. The interior is very nice with the unusual buddy seat in between the buckets vs the more commonly seen counsel. The radio does not work and the radio plate really should be replaced, it is the only real defect on the interior. I didn't spend the money because 90% of people install an aftermarket stereo anyway. The carpet, headliner, rear package tray, drivers front armrest, seat foam and covers are new. Everything else is original/OEM. Even though the lower dash pad has vents for A/C it is an original non A/C car which is very unusual coming from New Mexico. The dash pads are out of another Charger and are perfect. New windshield and gasket. Remainder of glass is decent. In summary I would like to say that this Charger is a super nice car overall and I don't think anyone would be disappointed with it. I am a detail freak and have sold a fair number of old Mopars that I have restored to many happy people who still own them today. It has a lot of new parts throughout as one would imagine so I won't take the time to create an exhaustive list. Feel free to email me for my phone number and I will be happy to talk more details with anyone. Bid with confidence. I'm not at all interested in trades, thank you for not asking.
