Someone got a great deal on Facebook 1973 Challenger

[QuickBpBp]

This 1973 Challenger just came across my market place. $8,000 doesn’t buy much these days. Parked in 88 and sold as is. Sold quick of course. While it’s not a 70-71 it’s still a desirable Challenger. You don’t find them this nice, complete and priced like this that often. Sadly it will probably back up in a few days for a lot more… Details below.

Any E body under 10k is a deal,especially if you need more than a dustpan and a broom to move it!

The color probably hurts the value more than the 318, decent paint job is 15 grand anymore. Still a smokin deal at 8000. It would make a great daily driver!!

I love that factory color.

Candidate for "survivor" IE drive as is.

If I grabbed that car,it needs fenders anyway, I would swap out the nose to a 70 Challenger nose,with a rallye hood, then swap the tail panel and rear quarter marker lights and just like that you are rolling in a nice 70 clone Challenger. This 73 roller that I bought for $500 already has the 70 fenders on it, and I have a new AMD 70 taillight panel and marker light cutouts for the car. It has really cool old school 70s flares.the plan was to make a Challenger T/A track car out of it. I doubt that I will ever get around to doing anything with the car.

I almost bought that.

I actually like the 72-74 tail lights better than the 70 or 71.

.....assuming the ad isn't a scam, and the buyer actually receives the car for that price.

 

[Budnicks]

looks to be a great price

being on Facebook unless you know them be careful of being scammed/conned

They suck,copied the Mercury Comet. The 70-71 taillights are way better.

 

[YY1]

Disagree.

I don't care for the single center backup light.

I do like the 70 front better, and I'm indifferent about the 71.

I like 72-74 Barracuda tail lights better, too.

 

[YY1]

It's a 73, "frown face" 318 car.

But it's worth more than 8K.

I'd say double.

...and I think the color adds value.

How many were green?...and how many of those had green interior?

I love all the Challengers. They were an awesome copy of the 69 Camaro. Slightly stretched, they had way better engine choices, and carried the lines on into the 70’s. That was a great deal.

PS: 71 was the best design of them all.

I saw it listed also. Nice car for the money. Hopefully, someone brings it back to life.
