SOLD
Sunroof was added. 318 car. Its a custom build not original gator grain either.
Not that it matters but I do have the tag from the car the roof came from. :haha:
Dave
That's Dave Hoffman's car, I have one of his cars from years ago. A 71 Charger RT power sunroof car in white with a black cloth interior.
I like the Hellcrate motor idea...

And why haven't you bought the SSP yet. :haha:
Dave
Beautiful car. I've spent some time drooling over this one at Carlisle!
That's where I've seen it before :worship: :drooling:
So where did the engine and tranny go?
A 318 body is worth $40,000? :unbelievable:

I like that SSP! I first saw it at Carlisle before Dave bought it. We all thought "what a cool 71"
It was the right project for a bodyman.

Likely if you don't have to paint it or redo the interior, etc...

So if I take my 70 Challenger 318 4 speed body and I paint it and put an interior in it I can sell it for $40K? :veryexcited:
I wonder how much I could sell my 71 Challenger 340 4 speed for? It runs and drives
Well maybe not, but if you take a $15K 318 project car, finish the body and paint to a show standard, add a ton of options including a rare sunroof, nice interior, etc...etc...you will likely spend more then $40K :alan2cents:

Hey don't try your fancy math on me Mr. Fancypants :fingerscrossed:
I knew I would hear this.
Well lets build my car.
First you need a super clean , no panel replacement body. 10 to 18
Or a typical rust project 8 to 10 Plus AMD catalog 5k
Sunroof and power windows 6k Good luck
Dana with disc brakes 3500.00
New interior 6k gauges, seats, door panels, carpet , headliner, dash pad ect
Gator grain 1200.00 do they still make it?
Bright work grill trim ect restored 3500.00
Wheels 1500.00
Stereo 1000.00
Frame ties 250.00
Rotisserie restore This depends if you can do it your self and your time is free. If not you need to pay someone.
25000.00 to 30000.00
Small parts, wiper motor, fuel lines, brake lines , e brake cables ect 5000.00
Now Im sure I have missed something but you get the idea.
Now understand I am not angry ,But we all know how this gos .Cant spend 40k on this project so people buy that rusty car and spend more money and way more time. Usually 5 years later still not done, they lose interest and sell it off to the next person who dreams of a muscle car.
This car is not for everyone either, but I feel worth the asking price. If I am wrong , well so be it.
Dave
Dave,
Understood the logic you would use to explain the price even before you explained it.
If you can find someone who wants to build out that car with that very unique style than all the more power to you.
And yes you can still buy a Gator Grain top but I don't think it's 100% accurate.
Best of luck.
Morty
Dave
Why not just finish it and sell it?
Short answer is no time. Out of places to put it while it is down. Thought of hellcrate, small block, big block as I have k frame and some parts to do it.
If it doesn't sell Ill buy another storage container and put it away until time permits.
Dave
You are probably well aware of this but it will "rain" in those containers as atmospheric conditions change. Please consider adequate ventilation including fans I suppose an additional cover may suffice. I sell containers, seen it happen a lot. I tend to agree with your assessment by the way. Wish i had to funds to buy it from you. 8) :cheers:
Those containers are sweat boxes.
At least put lots of dehydration pellets in there if not run a de-humidifier.
I rent these for storing customer's cars. They are new containers, insulated etc....I have the opposite problem....you drive a car in there, come back a week later and the fumes are still trapped inside....not complaining, they are super dry all year round... :twothumbsup:
And they are cheap.
Dave
Ad updated with complete front suspension.
Dave
Price drop 35000.00 or best offer.
If it was a good body to start with and has original parts I can see the value just put your engine and trans and drive it, sure beats getting grinding dust in your eyes or mig weld splatter down your ear hole.
Yep: Where I live you could spend that on body and paint pretty quick.
All true, if you buy a rusty body and everything to build it ... way over my price.
This car is all original body except trunk floor and Dutchman.
