1972 Challenger. $52,500 O.B.O.

Nice clean car. Plenty of go fast goodies. Price is too high IMO, but "OBO" means different things to different people.
My REAL V-code 70 Roadrunner is not #s matching, but all of the VINs are correct, just not the engine and trans.
They were asking $59,999 and I bought it for a few thousand over $40k

I must be missing something.

$52,000. 1972 Challenger. Florida. Is that normal to you?

My car must be worth $75,000+ . . . #barrettjacksonfever

I shouldn't have to point this out.

He's asking $52,000, not $25,000.

Electrical taping the wires going to the front (2) electric fans. Multiple fused wires going directly to battery, rather than a fuse block. Cheap, cheap, cheap harmonic balancer. Drag shocks, caltracs, and drag radials. $30 auto parts store gauge set bolted under dash. Flowmaster mufflers. . . Last picture . . . Box sitting on it and a chair leaning up against it. These cars never came with a big-block, the highest engine option was a 340 in 72'.

None of this screams, I'm worth more than a 1970-1971 440-6 factory Cuda'.

This screams, I just finished watching Barrett Jackson and fell asleep during the Macum auctions.

When an owner is asking this kind of money for a non-desirable model, it better be done correctly and everything premium. 5/6-speed transmission. Aftermarket suspension/k-member. Best of the best.

Looks like a nice car. Price seems a bit high, but if they paid someone to do all the work, they may have that much sunk into the car?
The $52,500 is just an asking price, and maybe someone with too much money will buy it?

If they paid someone, easily $50,000 invested.

Looks like a $30,000 car to me. If it was a 1971, $40,000.

Tis the season b.J. is down in w.p.b. this weekend he's fishing for a sucker!

My neighbor put his house up for sale for $350,000. It is worth about $200,000. I ask if he was wanting to sell his house, he said no, but if someone gives me $350,000 I’ll sell it. After about 3 years someone did. You don’t know until you ask, besides, you can always go down on price.
I do agree that $25,000 is closer to actual value. I think that it’s just so common it’s not surprising anymore.

$52,000 OBO...here's my OBO(e)

 

[jamie]

Yeah but you get a ball bearing timing chain

And judging by the stained exhaust you also get a rear main seal leak

Oh I just noticed he's got his head stuck under there snapping pics with a floor jack and no stands. I thought that big 'ol pan had a lot of ground clearance!

I don't think its so outrageous that it should be joked about. The car is decent, clean and straight. The price may be a tad high but it is only an "asking" price. Go find a cripple to make jokes about.

If it's really a $52,000 car, why Craigslist? A $52,000 car doesn't have mismatched tires, doesn't have a gap where the dash pad meets the dash, doesn't have **** all over the floor, doesn't have cheesy gauges, and taped wiring. Yeah, it's a TAD high. Quit being such a Sensitive Suzy and let us Negative Nancy's have some fun. Now, who's ready to toss some midgets?

He’s trying to get what he has into it.

LOL !!

Now this thread is getting funny. I’m sure I laughed a lot harder than I should have.
