Hello everyone.
I´m new to the MB. I guess some of you have seen this Challenger before.

http://www.cars-on-line.com/70chall7728.html

It´s been for sale for at least three years. I wonder why :wink: .

Yeah! That's what I'm talkin about...a two seater(?) muscle wagon.

The BEST combo I've seen EVER. A waste of a nice Challenger but I think it was worth it.

3 years??? That's wierd. Something must be very wrong then.
Pictures seem to be old or it was a very bad camera. I can see that the gas cap is missing.
I think i'd definitely buy it if I had the money, no matter what condition.

That something is the idea to cut up a Challenger and make wagon of it. No matter the result. If I need a Mopar wagon I would go for a Dodge Coronet Wagon.

Yes that's true :) But maybe it had an accident or something and then they came up with that idea.
At least I like it :wink:

At least they didn't mount the body on a 4 X 4 chassis! Like some of the hill jack bowtie people do with their camaro's. And don't forget to remove both doors for easy access into the cockpit. :shock:

Nice but the first one was much better. This one is a "little" overdone.
(by the way that picture is too sad to look at more that once)

I agree.

From the ad:
"Over $40,000 in Receipts" ; My comment - Many dollars spent just to decrease the value with 50% or something.... :s005:

"One of a kind" ; My comment - I really hope so...... :s022:
