 ::)Pretty sure I passed this one up back in the '90s, or one just like it but it had a flat hood at the time. Green, 318, and column shift (strike THREE for most but I don't mind any/all of those myself :deadhorse:) It was in the Kansas City area at that time but I suppose there could be more than one of those around this area. Way optimistic on the price IMO.  :popcorn:

Ya, quite a dreamer, but you never know with people w/money these days.

Rusty poking through 318 green Challenger vert for $30k?

:rubeyes:

I don't know, I haven't seen a convertible in better condition for less lately.  Considering what rusty no-engine shells of 70-71 cars seem to bring, 30k for a complete, running convertible that needs a little love doesn't seem out of the question.

 :dunno: That's a pretty good point gzig5. I guess if someone is okay driving it that way. Kind of looks like there is trouble lurking under the paint but I suppose it could hold up for a while. Seems like all you get for $20k is a rust hole sans engine.

If you have seen what I have seen under my car after I bought it, you would understand my position.  I guess it depends on your perspective but I'd drive that car every day and twice on Sunday.  I see rust but nothing that would scare me away. I may be naive but I looked for a viable car in my price range(10-20k) for better than ten years.  Pretty much everything that came up in this area was an incomplete pile of crap in the middle or out of my price range.  I finally found a car that was complete enough but it has hidden treasures  :angry:.  The fact that I could drop a German Shepard through the floor of the trunk did not deter me because the interior is all there along with most all the little pieces.  I applaud anyone who can find fine specimen of an e-body for under 20k or a convert for less than 30k, but it ain't happening within 500 miles of Milwaukee unless I've been sleeping.   And to be clear I am in no way a collector, just a guy trying to relive a little of my youth through these cars.  I may be off but if you look down your nose at this car at this price, you'll be waiting a long time for something equal or better.  I'll go back to my hole now.

Had to look close at this one; ad lists JH27C = 6cyl
Code tag lists 318 engine E44
The G looks like a C on the tag
:thinking:
