The Dodge Challenger Message Board

My friend purchased this car about a year ago. When I looked at that car closely, I kinda didn't understand why he would purchase such a project. I guess my friend underestimated how much work this thing would need. Plus, the guy he bought it from told him it was a 440 R/T SE car with original motor. Well, there's no fender tag or dashpad(VIN). Needless to say, my friend is pretty dissappointed. I say we pay a visit to that jerk in Tehachapi who sold him the car. We're not sure whether to part out the car or sell it outright. I know it's hard to tell anything from pics, but all and any opinions are welcome.

Photos can be seen at my photo album link below in the "franks_70Chal" album:

The album is not there?

Here we go Dave:

That cannot be it. That car pictured is a very rare 340 powered Western Sport Special car. One of only about 4 that we know of I think we decided? Plus I know that one had a fender tag or a build sheet (I forget).

What made this one even more rare was it was made at the Hamtramck plant. Again one of only 3 or 4 that we know of built at that plant.

A very rare car indeed and well worth restoring.

No he said he had an albumn on his photo site called "franks_70Chal" album and there is no such album on that link.

VIN was JH23H0B359719 and the owner was Velozo who started this thread. Hello Velozo! I forgot all about that car you found. How is it doing? Found a roof for it yet?

Yeh, I can't find the album either - although I did find those pics posted.

Hey Dave,
How's it going? Long time, no talk. I haven't started in on the Challenger, yet. I'm trying to get that headache of a Camaro off my back. It's one problem after another with that Z.

When you do that, you should see the album titled, "franks_70Challenger"

Thanks,

To me, the car in the album is just a plain ol' 70 Challenger SE. There's nothing to ID the car without a VIN or fender tag. Since, it's so gutted, I'm not sure if it's even worth putting on eBay.

I see the album now.

I have seen a lot worse than that successfully restored to a good standard and sold for big money.

If he does not want or cannot to do the work on it he should put it on ebay because I think it will sell.

You've seen a lot worse than this, and someone actually finished the project?! This one would take way too much time and money...IMO. I guess we'll put it on eBay when I get back from vacation.
Thanks,
Dean

before ebay how much would you want for the shell and how close is Gardena to Las Vegas???

Let me ask my friend, and I'll get back to you.
Gardena(south LA) is a quick 4 hour drive without traffic to Vegas.
Thanks,
