This one is a cool combo.  Too bad it has been modified from the tag with added options like the shaker and changed to a 4 speed.
Mecum estimates it well into 6 figures. What will it bid to?

We need pictures. I can't open mecum links

I'm a tech moron so I can't figure out how to take a snapshot off my iPad or phone screen(though once in a rare while my fingers will accidentally push a button while swiping my screen at the same time I'm clicking my heels together or something along those lines and it will take a screenshot when I'm not trying to, go figure! :notsure:  :haha:
Anyway if I think of it and have a free minute while on my work laptop tomorrow, I can snip and save some pictures then post them.

Hopefully these pictures come through.

My computer saved the mecum pictures as avif files so I had to convert them to jpeg files to get them to post here.

@Deezel What format did you save those pictures in to get them to come up so big on the site?

I just use the insert an image button (top bar just right of the youtube button) when I reply and it asks for the URL of the image. I put the URL  of the image in and that's it. You can customize the size of the image this way as well.

The images I inserted in this thread are straight from the Mecum site. I right click on the image I want to share, open in another window/tab then copy the URL from the address bar and insert it.

It's running Friday afternoon. Mecum runs through next weekend.
There was a F4 cuda 340 convertible that ran last Saturday and sold for a little short of $100K.  From the pictures it looked like an older restoration, Goodyear Eagle ST tires from the mid 90s, some stuff wrong under the hood etc.

Most of the heavy hitter Mopars are running at the end of this week.  Live coverage of the auction is on MotorTrend TV Wednesday through Saturday.

I get that options are desirable, but I hate when they're added to a rare car...you're just destroying the value...especially the four speed swap... :crazytalk:

Looking at that 250k estimate with a wrong car shows I am out of touch I guess. That F4 droptop looks pretty cool for under $100k.

The F4 convert, like the 68 Hemi Charger...ran WAY TOO EARLY, they should have gone this coming weekend in prime time..
