Hi all, selling this for a good friend. I can tell you, I had this car in my facility for a year and have known it for many. If you know me, take my word, there is no need to inspect this car (but please feel free!).

No excuses car....period.

This car is unrestored. Has it's original born with driveline! and tons of paper.

Engine Rebuild in 2000 – cam, pistons, valves, heads polished and ported

Third Owner – converted to power steering (I believe with a 1971 A Body steering pump)

This car is THE car used for the Ertl Racing Champions DIECAST MODEL 1971 Challenger R/T. Designed from this car and has PLUMRT license plates – which have been registered to the current owner in Illinois for the life of the car.

In case you were not paying attention, this car in its born with configuration......is the ultimate sleeper.
No wing, stripe delete with dogdish hubcaps and no console.

Car runs and drives fantastic!

It pretty much has won best in its class at every Chicagoland Mopar Connection show it entered.

I am putting it here first.
