I purchased this car from the original owner and as far as we can tell it has not been out of the garage or on the road since 1999. I pulled the gas tank out and had it flushed out installed new fuel filters and replaced the fuel pump and some of the fuel lines also installed an edelbrock carburetor and it starts and runs great. I did drive it up and down the road just to make sure everything was working as good as it could for a car that has been sitting for 20+ years.
Ok now for what I know about this car, it does have the numbers matching 340cu in V8 engine in it I can't tell about the transmission I have not found the numbers on it yet. It is an S code Rallye with the 150mph speedo, until the owner decided to spray it with black primer it was an F3 code green with a black interior. For all the other original equipment I have a nice picture of the fender tag included in my pictures.
The Good;
As you can see in the pictures other than surface rust the under side of it as nice as I have ever seen.
Interior other than the front seats and head liner is in great shape.
340 engine does not smoke and it sound like a mild cam has been put in at some point,
It has been sitting in on my concrete garage floor for 6 months and has not leaked any fluids but I can see some damp areas on the transmission but not enough to leak on the floor yet.
Trunk floor looks solid with no holes but the sealer needs replace and surface rust removed and painted.
Rallye wheels and tires look very good but I think I would replace the tires since it sat so long?
Clean Ohio title!!!!
Very low miles 69908!!!!!!!!
Both doors look great!! no rust at all ever on the seams.
For the Bad;
Rear quarters both have had work but I don't think they will need replaced and the wheel wells look good, front fenders have both had some repair done at the front and lower rear. bumpers need rechromed unless you like that black primer look. Front seats need recovered, carpet is gone. I think fuses but not sure since radio and a couple gauges don't work.
All in all though for someone wanting a real classic muscle car with minimal expense and if you are able to do the work yourself I think this is a great car to start with.
I do have the car listed locally for $9500.00 or trades entertained, and it may possibly sell before the auction ends so that is why I also put a buy it now on.
If you have any questions please email and I will do my best to answer them.

2015 Ford Mustang vs. Camaro and Challenger [w/poll]
Thu, 17 Jul 2014The horsepower wars are tightening among the Detroit Three, as the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro and Dodge Challenger are getting bigger, more powerful, and yes, more fuel efficient.
That came into sharper focus this week as more information was revealed about the most insane Challenger ever - the 707-horsepower Hellcat - followed quickly by Ford's in-depth showcase of the 2015 Mustang in Dearborn.
It's shaping up to be a golden age for enthusiasts, and what's under the hood is becoming more important than ever.
Fiat Chrysler and the UAW reach tentative labor deal
Sat, Nov 30 2019DETROIT — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and the United Auto Workers (UAW) union on Saturday announced a tentative agreement for a four-year labor contract, a boost for the automaker as it works to merge with France's Groupe PSA. Italian-American Fiat Chrysler and PSA, the maker of Peugeot and Citroen, last month announced a planned $50 billion merger to create the world's fourth-largest automaker. The tentative agreement with Fiat Chrysler, which is subject to ratification by the union members, follows contracts that the UAW already concluded with Ford Motor Co and General Motors Co. The deal with GM followed a 40-day strike in the United States that virtually shuttered GM's North American operations and cost the automaker $3 billion. The UAW on Saturday said the contract with Fiat Chrysler included a commitment from FCA to invest $9 billion, creating 7,900 new jobs over the course of the four-year contract. Of the $9 billion, $4.5 billion was announced earlier this year, to be invested in five plants and creating 6,500 jobs. Detailed terms of the tentative agreement were not released, but they are expected to echo those under the new contracts with GM and Ford, as the UAW typically uses the first deal as a pattern for the others. "FCA has been a great American success story thanks to the hard work of our members," UAW acting President Rory Gamble said in a statement. "We have achieved substantial gains and job security provisions for the fastest growing auto company in the United States." Ratification is not a sure thing. Rank-and-file UAW members at FCA in 2015 rejected the first version of a contract. In addition, a lawsuit related to a federal corruption probe could also raise doubts among union members about the terms agreed. The federal corruption led GM to file a racketeering lawsuit against FCA, alleging that its rival bribed union officials over many years to corrupt the bargaining process and gain advantages, costing GM billions of dollars. FCA has brushed off the lawsuit as groundless. Under the UAW's deal with GM, the automaker agreed to invest $9 billion in the United States, including $7.7 billion directly in its plants, and to create or retain 9,000 UAW jobs. Ford's contract included commitments to invest more than $6 billion in its U.S. plants and to create or retain more than 8,500 UAW jobs. The deals with GM and Ford also created a pathway to full-time employment for temporary workers and left healthcare insurance coverage unchanged.
Guy trying to sell Challenger Hellcat for $89,000 because VIN ends in '666'
Mon, Jul 27 2015The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is undoubtedly one of the baddest cars on the road today. With a 707-horsepower supercharged V8 snarling under the hood, the coupe can go down the road like a bat out of hell. There's not much that could make one of these muscle machines much more menacing, but a seller on Craigslist has one bizarre solution: offering a hellacious Hellcat with a VIN marking the Dodge as the beastly 666. What's the price for such unholy identification? That's a cool $89,000 – around $30,000 more than a brand new, less sacrilegious example. The seller claims that the Challenger's blasphemous number makes the vehicle "one of a kind," which is true only to the extent that VINs ending 665 and 667 would be similarly unique. The seller also says in the Craigslist ad, "This car is sure to become a collector's item and will only increase in value." There's no question that the Hellcat is a special machine, and the models just might be worth something decades into the future. Expecting that a future owner is going to care about the VIN seems pretty optimistic, though, unless this is either the first or last example, which it's not. To the credit of this superstitious seller, the Challenger appears completely untouched with all of the warning stickers, paperwork and even the plastic still covering the seats. So, the new owner is at least getting a practically untouched example. While we applaud audacity here, a roughly $30,000 premium for an unholy VIN seems a bit... devilish.
