    Idle rpm drops substantially when putting car in gear

    1969 dodge charger r/t 440, 727, stock. So when i go from Park to Drive my idle rpm drops from around 1100 to 400 or 1000 to 500 (cant give you an exact number, but basically in half). The car has power brakes and the pedal also gets harder when the rpms drop. During normal driving it works...

    Guy complains about Lowballer then sells for this exact amount to someone else

    First he complains that 5000$ (33% below his ask) is a rude lowball offer but then later sells the car for this exact amount to somebody else? :wtf: Apart from that i think that offering 30% below ask isn't rude. Because even if you are willing to spend more, you gotta start somewhere / leave...

    Just found this car for sale: https://bid.cars/en/lot/1-57231744/1970-Dodge-Challenger-JH27G0B191208 Since it's a clone i have a hard time putting a value on it. But I feel that the current bid of $41,025 is already the upper end for a 1970 318 challenger convertible with some kind of 440...
