Looks well-built, a friend has asked my opinion, I'd say if the mechanicals are in good shape, it could be a good car?
Don't forget, that's about 45k in US$

Nice looking car but the rake is so wrong. There's been a lot of money spent on it but for a 72 it priced far too high.. :alan2cents:

This Challenger was listed for sale on 13 September 2019.
Grogan Ford Lincoln Inc in Watford was asking CAD 50k.

Watford is near Toronto isnt it?

Watford is roughly 300km from the dealer in Toronto

I don't know the car, at least not in its current iteration.

Given that someone ponied up for a Dana and 4 wheel discs, there are probably some other pleasant surprises in the build.

I wonder if Grogan's sent it to Toronto to get more exposure. It hasn't been driven in a year.

When my buddy Mike had his 71 Challenger for sale, I'm pretty sure it went to a Ford dealer. They are flippers. They tried to buy all his cars as a package deal but he said nope. If they think they can make a quick buck flipping it then thats what they do. Same guy at the ford dealer bought a local 68 Bee a few years back too.

Thanks all for the info.
I to think that it is a nice build from the equipment shown.
Although it does look like it was built for more serious use than going to the Dairy Queen... so I wonder if it's been ran hard and put away wet... we'd need at least a compression test, what else could be checked? Anyone close by could do a quick check?

The original 50k price was more realistic....

My old F150 is from Grogan Ford and they're about 35-40 miles from London and about 130- 140 miles from "Tarana". I, also am not fond of flippers and the fact that the latest one saw fit to jam the price another $9000 doesn't help. I hope they get stuck with it and end up losing on it, because I also, think that's a pie-in-the-sky price.  :thumbdown:
