This is a motor numbers matching 1974 Challenger with Rally Package & Factory A/C. It has the 360 4bbl and Hurst pistol grip 4-speed transmission. An increasingly rare combination. The transmission is not numbers matching.Always stored under cover, the vinyl is in excellent condition and the paint is pretty good. There are a couple of chips that can be seen in the additional pictures link below. The paint is starting the bubble in the regular spots, by the wheel wells. No bondo that I am aware of. No rust holes. Interior is great, there's a little wear on the drivers seat but that's it. Headliner is good.The engine has had one rebuild on it that I am aware of. The previous owner installed a rear window defrost that I removed but I have the pieces for it. I also have the original orange air cleaner. The only piece that I know is not correct is the rear bumper, which came from a 1972 (doesn't have the 5 mph rubber bumpers on it), and the Edelbrock carbs. I wired it sort of temporarily for an amplifier in the trunk and installed a new head-unit and speakers. The amp wiring would be very easy to remove if you wanted. For the front speaker I routed the speaker wire over the dash because running it behind the dash meant drilling a hole and I have never drilled a hole or made any modification to this car. Kept as original as possible, always.Passenger door handle is sticky but the mechanism works. Switch for the e-brake is malfunctioning so the e-brake light stays on. It's been not wanting to idle this season when I pulled it out, carb adjustment/rebuild will take care of it I'm sure. The car has a new electronic ignition module.Clean title in hand. I am happy to work with any buyers to get it transported. I haven't seen another numbers matching 360/4-speed for sale in a long time and I look pretty often. Never seen another one with this color combo. NADA Guides values at about $32K in average condition. That is a value that has increased about $4,000 just over the time I've owned it. EDIT 7/26: I have had a full pre-sale inspection done on the car which has revealed a couple of issues:leaking valve cover gasketleaking timing chain gasketexhaust leak due to wearing on suspension components, rubbing on idler arm. needs A-frame upper bushings and ball joints.I will fully disclose all of the issues to a buyer. If you look at the additional photos link you can see the inspection report, nothing to hide here. She is a rare original specimen but needs some love. I have lowered the price accordingly. For a gear-head that wants to work and love on a car, the issues aren't too bad. I was given an estimate of about $2,500 for all the repairs. I priced out parts to around $400 if you wanted to DIY.

I will work with the buyer to make transportation as easy as possible. Vashon Island, where the car is, is an island that takes a ferry to get to. I am not willing to drive the car far off the island but I would be willing to bring it to the Seattle or Tacoma ferry, or within a few miles to meet a driver for transport.On Aug-06-18 at 13:54:00 PDT, seller added the following information: Edit: Because the car is listed elsewhere locally, I reserve the right to end the auction early if a buyer is found. I will be out of town on the date the auction ends and may not be within cellphone range, for this reason there I will extend the time that a buyer can make their deposit to 72 hours. Thank you !
