This one doesn't seem too bad unless the rust monster is hiding deep in the places we can't see in the photos.   No pictures under the hood or in the truck raises some red flags on that...

Price seems a tad high regardless.

I'm sure that ad made perfect sense to the poster  :stop:

That part is a bit confusing...    he has 17321 in the data on the right but 117000 in the description.

It doesn't look bad for 117000 miles, but looks pretty beat if he really meant 17000!     :thinking:

The ad is technically correct. The odometer reads 17,321 since it is only a 5-digit odometer. The presumed correct mileage on the car is as he states, 117,000.

What about the $35,000 asking price ? I'm kinda on the fence on this one...seems real high, but it is a complete convertible that doesn't appear to be folding in half  :dunno:

The bodies coming apart though. I bet it will become a Taiwan flyer once dug into. To me $35k is too much but what do I know?

I find it funny, when I posted a WIW about a Challenger convertible with a beautiful paint job, including the bottom of the car, a fresh 340 with Edelbrock heads, a 518 O/D blah blah blah I was told it was worth between 20 & 30K...

A buddy of mine sent me a text last night about this car.
I had 25k as a gut number. Depends on a lot more info and visual inspection.
