It wasn't but a few short years ago we all said the same thing about vans, station wagons, A and C body cars but all of those have gone up a lot over a relatively short time simply because most of us who love old Mopars can't afford the ultra cool models. These 70s era B body cars are plentiful now just like 68 chargers once were. But it won't stay that way. In fact, there is a real rise in all sort of makes from the 70s. It won't take long for these to skyrocket.

Would love a 68 Charger, but I don't think I could slip it past my wife.  :bye:

I sold this one for $100k, best car I ever owned. I thought about buying it back about 5 years ago.

Sweet R/T!

I have a soft spot for the 71/72 B bodies.  I've owned 4 in my time. and I've had the pleasure of building a 71 FC7 Super Bee and owning a 71 N96 EL5 Roadrunner.  I really enjoyed the roadrunner a lot but nothing grabbed the attention that my Super Bee did. 

The bee is still listed to me on the Super bee Registry site but its since been sold to a guy out in PA.  http://www.71superbee.com/Chris_Palmer/

I love the 71 B bodies & have also owned a few , fantastic cars that are very unappreciated unless they are R or V code  :twothumbsup:

this one being a U code is what gets me. 
Might be one of the only undervalued 440's on the market. a 72 non the less.

Agreed , I had a 72 Ralley 400 mag 4spd in GA4 with hideaways for while , it was one of 142 built before the color option
No one was overly interesed in it either

Yes: I think the 72's are probably the best value you can find if looking to buy a hiper Mopar. Unfortunately they may never come to life price wise. But if you want a nice car to drive for reasonable they are the ticket. I love 71-2 Road Runners as well.
