Still [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img] over the Charger. The 70's fashion show sounds funny. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/haha.gif[/img]

Spent the day printing out some photos and text for the display at MCACN next week.

This one is the sequence of the three prior owners, and their reunions with the car, plus the original mechanic and his son on the right (four generations of his family worked at Suburban Dodge over the years)

I have enough of these frames now, with the original documentation and paperwork, I can encircle the entire car!




If you are at the show, come on by and say hi. I'll be in the SYC display. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Now that the Scottsdale auctions are all over, feel free to give me a call in case you didn't find the car of your dreams out west. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

I am still looking for a new adoptive parent for the Charger.

Drop me line and we can talk.

Here's another vintage photo of the car taken in 1987, when Pete Ianelli owned it. It was stored under that blue tarp, in what resembled a wildlife preserve for vintage musclecars. Hibernating in the yard was a blue 69 COPO Camaro, a 70 L78 Camaro, a 70 LS6 El Camino, a green 69 Hemi GTX, a 73 Superduty T/A and a bunch of other equally rare beasts.

$285 K for this car??
Man that is a lot of money for that car, i would say you are way over the market value for today.

[njsteve]

Yes, it is a lot of money for the car.

Try to find another one. - you won't because they made only one.

Try to find another hemi car with 43 years of completely documented ownership.

Or unrestored with 17,000 miles, still riding on its original 1970, owner installed wheels and tires.

With the only known set of dealer-installed and ironclad documented, Scat Pack hemi headers.

With every single piece of documentation since even before it was built.

As for market value? Show me a comparitive sale of an unrestored 426 Hemi, four speed,70 Charger R/T-SE. There was a yellow 70 hemi R/T Charger (not an SE) that was beautifully restored, which privately sold in the same ballpark within the past year or so.

P.S. I was told the exact same thing in 1987 when I sold that yellow 71 Hemicuda ragtop for $54K. I had people calling me and telling me how I ripped off Otis Chandler by making him pay that much for a hemi car. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Markets go up and markets go down, but quality cars will always be worth what you pay for them, long after you bought them.

WOW, what a rude post. At least it brought Steve's killer car to the top.
