Current Mecum auction

[blown motor]

A 74 Challenger with a 318, auto, A/C and Rallye package just sold for $35,000. It looked good in the pictures. Has broadcast sheet but no mention of fender tag or numbers matching engine.

I'm waiting for this one on Saturday. Curious to see what it sells for or gets bid up to ? Mine has a 401 and a T56 so I would think maybe somewhat more desirable. I have no intension of selling just curious to "worth" and am hoping I won't be upside down on mine. I'll have just under 20k into mine when I'm done.

The exhaust "sticks out" to me. I'd have to change it if it were mine. Also what's a set of door hinge pins worth wow!   

[blown motor]

Didn't you know door hinge pins are on back order? Supply chain issues.

I thought this did well at $68,000

I'm surprised at that price.

Ya I agree  ! Wow I don't think I've ever seen a 72-74 Challenger sell for that much! 

[blown motor]

A couple more.
70 Cuda $115,000

Sold for $32K plus commission

I just checked all the results so far starting from Lot #1.....In my opinion, ALL the Mopar's are doing well...$22K for a 318 Scamp...not too shabby

Please school me guys. Why did blown motor say this sold for $68K when the results page shows it as $74,800.00?
Are the two figures one without and one with commissions/fess? Yeah, I broke down and registered just to see the numbers.

74.8k is with the commission

[anlauto]

Yes 10% buyers fee...so you have to keep that in mind when buying...So if you go there to buy a car with a $74800 budget, you better STOP bidding at $68K

The bigger question is why the heck that Challenger sold for so much

Thanks for the clarification.

Because Bruce Willis drove it in a movie. But I agree, $68K is a lot for a car that's missing the trim on the front of the hood and the vinyl roof seam goes down the middle.

[cuda hunter]

Ewwwh!  A holy wood car. 

Made it sell for more than it's worth.  Has to be what happened.

Nice car and all, but 75K? 

I could buy a 71 cuda for that kind of coin. 

Guess there is that one guy out there that likes the frowny face more than all the other ebodies.
