Default Ebay Find of the Day / Challenger 8 Seater

Brought to you by the makers of the All Wheel Drive Challenger, it's the Challenger Town and Country.

Style, Pizazze and a certain je ne sais quoi, that can only be described as enchanting...OR...something like that .....maybe.....

It's always dangerous to get excited about a car that looks halfway decent in pictures. This creative body project that was born from a very rare 1971 Dodge Challenger R/T SE is just such a car. Yes, the value of this car has been pretty well erased by the addition of an Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser roof, and that could cause some outbursts from purists. The thing is, the stupid values that cars of this era have been reaching at auction are a recent phenomenon. This particular Challenger was just a two year old car when someone went at it with the nibbler back in 1973. From what we can see, this is a 50/50 car – the closeups tell a story that's a little rougher than the more distant snaps. If you've got $28,000, you can enter a starting bid. The seller points out that it'll need some work, and that'll likely cost you at least another 30-large for a full proper restoration. Nobody has thrown cash at the auction yet, so that's a good sign for bidders. With less than a day to go, you may be able to snag this vintage metal shop Frankenstein without a bidder war.
Also described as one "fly @ss coochie mobile" by men of substance and means.
Enjoy.

Could this be the end game for Chrylser dropping the Magnum? Give it a lift kit, 4WD, mud flaps, a KC Light bar, a trailer hitch and a cusomtized trailer (think the prowler one here) as well as some luxurious appointments you've got a replacement for the entire Dodge lineup!
