No Reserve: 1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye Project in B5 Blue
VIN: JS23H2B230518
Link: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1972-dodge-challenger-6/
Current bid: $9,000 with only 5 days left...

I wonder if the VIN code is correct...  :notsure:
Some years ago a 1972 Challenger (Gold) was listed for sale with the same VIN/Fendertag.

The old term "dirty work at the crossroads" comes to mind! They should call the car Lazarus, since it too, seemingly has arisen from the dead!  :thinking:

Maybe the guy bought the gold car and painted it blue when he restored it ? :alan2cents:

That does seem plausible to me. Remnants of gold paint are visible next to the Door Vin Decal...
Thank you @Poolshark314 for requesting this information! :twothumbsup:
When looking at the current condition of the car, I am afraid the body work was restored and repainted without any decent prepping...  :('

Below is the link to an old ad of the same Challenger, put up for sale as it seems shortly after the first restoration:

It's flipping in it's purest form...you buy a car, throw a quick paint job on it a sell it.....no harm there :huh:

No Problem! Yeah definitely does not look like the best paint job. I am excited about seeing the other listings he mentioned are coming soon
