Neat item. It has been advertised a few years ago. Will take the right buyer to appreciate it and for the right price. One of those "but what do you do with it" cars.

 

[Kern Dog]

Yeah, It was in Mopar Collectors Guide maybe 10 years ago?

Definitely one of those cars that would be awesome for a museum but of absolutely zero use to anyone else as it's value is destroyed the second you change anything on it.

If it's the one that I am thinking of, clear coat it and stick a hemi in it.

If I had money to burn, I would buy it, clear coat it, and use it as a conversation piece in my shop.

Were there so many changes from 1973 to 1974 that they had to do another buck?

That's exactly what I was thinking! Why would you need another proof vehicle when the 73 was exactly the same. Heck, the 72 is pretty much the same too except for the 2 1/2 mph bumpers that came out in 73......

Meh.....what do you do with it? At 30 grand, it's just waaaaay to much. If it were a 70 or a 71, that would be a different story.

 

[Montclaire]

Did the assembly plant locations change for 74? Does this car even have a VIN?

Would be interesting to see what this would bring at an auction.

Interesting piece of Chrysler/Plymouth history

cool car/tooling buck, not sure what I'd do with it,
albeit it's cool piece of Chrysler Corp. History, worth/value who knows ???
IMO it really should be in a FCA/Chrysler museum...

especially IF it has some real documentation & paperwork, backing it up
not just recollection of someone who worked there years ago...

For sale: useless rolling chassis. Needs everything else!!

^^ Exactly .. He tried to trade us it for our fully restored Cuda Stock Eliminator car a couple months back.
