  • Some times unexpected things turn out to be the best. I still am in disbelief about this whole situation. I hope you guys are going to enjoy watching the process of getting this car back on the road just as much as I am. Let me know you thoughts, ideas, comments, whatever down below! In the next video we’ll get to see what this thing looks like without 30 years of moss & dirt on it and see that orange paint shine!

      Theyll start getting affordable again in about 10 years. I'm only ten years older than you....and I remember back in the late 90's project mopars in even better shape than this were going for only a couple grand. The insane prices you're seeing for them now is a result of the boomer generation hitting retirement age and wanting to relive their youth! And they have a lot of money to spend right now which is jacking the prices up sky high. But once they start dying off in the next 10 years the prices will start to drop back to normal levels. And they'll be people out here trying to give these things away again!! Lol! The same thing happened with the 40s-50s car market lately. Where 20 years ago some of those were selling for insane prices but now they're really really cheap. The same thing will with the muscle car market too. So just hang tough and be patient, and save your money! The time will come! 😉👊💯

    My brother bought a brand new dodge charger 440 magnum in 1970 out of the dealers show room.
    I was 10 yrs old at the time and thought his car was so cool. He layer alot of rubber on the road in front of the house LOL.
    All his buddies had different make sports cars like mustang,challenger,
    Chevelle, Barracuda,
    GTO, Nova and his CHARGER RT 440 MAGNUM
    They did alit of street racing in those days and my brother never lost to any of them or anyone else he said. He was pretty proud of that car. He got in trouble outrunning the town cops in our home town and the surrounding towns LOL They finally got to where they wouldnt even chase him. they knew whos car it was and they just called our parents and that usually meant dad took his keys for a week and he hated that so those incidences slowed down alot.
    Those were the good oh days and that charger you just bought reminded me of all that and more.
    Thanks for sharing the video with us.

I'm about to tear it down and get the frame pulled, my plan is to hit some cruise ins with the roof flapping just for laughs while I aquire the parts to fix all that, Goodluck on yours can't wait to see the progress!!

    You should try and see if that engine turns over by hand. If it does, put some transmission fluid into each cylinder and let it sit overnight. Then try and start it the next day. Might not be anything wrong with it, except the previous owner didn't know what they were doing.
