NO RESERVE!RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN RARE MATCHING NUMBER HIGH PERFORMANCE 440 RT CHARGER! HELLO! I AM RALPH FROM DOWNEAST CLASSICS. I AM SEMI RETIRED AND SPEND A LOT OF TIME AND ATTENTION ON ONE CAR AT A TIME. THIS BEAUTIFULL 1969 CHARGER RT BELONGED TO A DOCTOR FRIEND OF MINE 25 YEARS AGO. HE SOLD IT TO A FAMILY THAT PARKED IT IN A GARAGE FOR MOST OF THAT TIME. RECENTLY I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE THE VEHICLE AFTER LENGTHLY STORAGE. LAST REGISTERED IN 1999. AT THE TIME MY FRIEND OWNED IT, HE HAD ORIGINAL ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION REBUILT. (I HAVE CHECKED ALL NUMBERS AND CASTING CODES AND FIND THE ENGINE, TRANSMISSION TO BOTH HAVE COMPLETE MATCHING NUMBERS WITH CORRECT DATE AND CASTING CODES.)VERY FEW MILES ON THEM SINCE THAT WAS DONE. CORRECT BALANCED HP HEMI-STYLE DRIVESHAFT AND ORIGINAL REAR END .. I REPLACED FUEL TANK , PICKUP AND SENDING UNIT, LINE, FUEL PUMP FILTER AND CARB.(original carb needs rebuild, and is included )IT RUNS LIKE NEW. INSPECTED AND REPLACED BRAKE LINES WHERE NECESSARY AND MASTER CYLINDER. SUSPENSION STILL EXCELLENT. DRIVES STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD AND HANDLES BEAUTIFULLY THROUGH THE CORNERS. NO RATTLES OVER A BUMPY ROAD. TRANSMISSION SHIFTS PROMPTLY THROUGH THE GEARS AS IT SHOULD. NOTICED SLIGHT PULSATION IN BRAKES AT HIGH SPEED BRAKING. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING EVERYDAY TO INSURE NO DRIVEABILITY ISSUES. SPEEDOMETER WORKS BUT STICKS. NEEDS SERVICE. THE EXTERIOR IS GORGEOUS FINISHED IN ORIGINAL BAHAMA BLUE. BUMPERS GOOD WITH MINOR FLAWS. DOOR HANDLES ORIGINAL WITH SOME PITTING AS ARE MIRRORS. HIDEAWAY HEADLIGHTS WORK PROPERLY. ORIGINAL INTERIOR VERY NICE WITH SPLIT IN SEAM OF DRIVERS SEAT. BODY IS STRAIGHT. RUST FREE FENDERS AND DOORS. ORIGINAL REAR QUARTERS WITH LOWER PATCH PANELS WELDED IN. TRUNK PAN WAS REPLACED IN THE PAST, BUT FLOORBOARDS ARE ORIGINAL AND VERY NICE. REAR TORSION BAR SUPPORT UPON CLOSE INSPECTION , WAS REPLACED. (A GOOD THING) REAR SPRING SHACKLE MOUNTS ORIGINAL AND SOLID. NEW REAR SPRINGS. SEE UNDERCARRIAGE PICS. I AM HAPPY TO SEND PICS OF ANYTHING . THIS IS NOT A PUT TOGETHER CLONE RT WITH NON-MATCHING ENGINE AND TRANNY ETC. THIS IS AN CORRECT INVESTMENT QUALITY RT WITH ALL MATCHING NUMBERS. THE LAST AUTHENTIC RT I PERSONALLY SAW AT A COLLECTER AUCTION, SOLD FOR $95,000 WITH AN INVASIVE RESTORATION DONE ON A MUCH LESS WORTHY VEHICLE. (BUY IT NOW PRICE IS $45,000). IN ANOTHER LISTING, CURRENT BIDDING IS HIGHER ON A 69 NON MATCHING FRANKENSTEIN THAN MY STARTING BID. BIDDING LESS ON A REAL ONE, SEEMS TO ME TO BE A NO BRAINER. I WOULD EXPECT SERIOUS BIDDERS TO CONTACT ME WITH QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING. (RALPH FARRIS 207-650-6355) BIDDERS WITH LESS THAN 20 RATING MUST CALL ME TO QUALIFY TO BID. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN BID CANCELLATION. IF I DO NOT SEE SUFFICIENT BIDDING ACTIVITY PRIOR TO AUCTIONS END, I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL LISTING. BID WITH CONFIDENCE ON THIS CAR. YOU WILL NOT GET AN " I DON'T KNOW" TO YOUR QUESTIONS FROM ME. THANK YOU!
