I actually like that red 383 auto '71 Chally 'vert. https://www.mecum.com/lots/FL0118-312225/1971-dodge-challenger-convertible/

I'm actually going to be in Orlando from Dec 29th thru Jan 5th - doing the Disney thing. I'm tempted to delay my return flight a couple of days so that I can go check this out.  :takealook:

Hey Roadman, how does this auction work? Are the cars available in the pre-block inspection area only on the day that they are scheduled to go across the block? Or are they available to see days before they are scheduled? I can't spend a whole extra week there, but I could do an extra couple of days.  :thinking:
Cheers!

Check in for auction cars is Jan 2-4. However, lately the big money cars trickle in later. The place is huge, all cars that have arrived by the day you are there on full display. Let me know if you plan to attend, like to meet for breakfast and spend the day at the auction. Anybody else coming, let me know.

Tom, you remember those rear panels I bought from you?   The car I was looking at buying when I bought them from you is this Challenger.....

https://www.mecum.com/lots/FL0118-312526/the-1970-e-body-pilot-car-offering/

It was in Modesto from 74 to around around 2000....  At the time I bought those panels he'd offered me the car for $7K.....  Lots of cool history with that one...

Wow - isn't that something! So what happened - why didn't it wind up in your garage? Found the "show poodle" and bought that one instead?
Cheers!

Nope, actually he changed his mind, he did that quite a few times... Two other times to me, once for parts & once for a U code 4spd R/T SE... And a few times to other Mopar guys in the area....  Honestly I think my Challenger is more fun, the Promo Challenger is rare and valuable , it would have been a great investment... but I like to drive my cars & while investment value is nice it also means frequent driving isn't gonna happen....   

The deal on the Promo car was around 87... I picked up a 6 cylinder vert around 91 &  the car I jokingly refer to as a "show poodle" I picked up in 95...
