Not sure about the asking price but that is a very nice car. Buy it and drive it!  :ohyeah:

Very Nice looking Car
It has been for sale for a long time.
Typically when that is the case its a price issue.

Strong price for a 383 car, but man o man what a difference a set of tires makes in the overall appearance  :bigthumb:

Nice car, I've never gotten past Chester before to take a look. You just know someone is looking for that 71 hood catch setup though.

I never went that far in the pictures before, but that is VERY odd, why would someone do that ? I could see a 70 hook on a 71 car if your hood didn't have the mount for the pull rod....but why the heck would you put a 71 on a 70???? :looney: 

I also notice a thousand incorrect details now that I look at most of the pictures and can understand why it hasn't sold and won't sell for anything near the asking price....Air shocks ..really ? :thumbdown:

:iagree: :iagree:

Very poor mopar restoration. Lots of paint put wherever...

Looks to be done by a Chevy guy.

Really bugs me when these colored interiors are all spray bombed with the same can a paint. Originally different materials had different shades on them. Some materials molded in colors, while others painted.

Alan, it's a Canadian car, I remember a VO2 red and White 70 like this for sale in Ontario afew years back? Went to Quebec if I recall right, might be the same?

Would you guys do those of us who do not know the thousand details a favor and maybe point out more of the mistakes that are made.  I'm trying to learn these cars.  Challengers are so different than cuda's. 
  I participate over on FCBO, those guys pick apart Cbodies with precision and the amount of options and difference's are staggering.  I wish yal would do that with the ebodies.   I'm quite impressed with yals knowledge and I'm not poking fun. 
I truly enjoy all of @MasonDaniel7 's cars for sale posts as I get to read everyones opinions about the car. 

are the paint problems that were mentioned the fact that the bottom of the car is painted? over-restored?
Alan, I would like to know some of the thousand details.   I can only find but a few.   

This car has some really awesome options.  red on red with vo2 ew1 v9x is just a really cool combo.
