I'd be worried about a car that old with so few miles on it (assuming it truly is 8K). Looks nice and clean.

 

[azblackhemi]

Coming soon to a overpriced classic car dealership. New price $28,500.

 

[Newport 66]

Sharp car, a few flaws and a few improvements. $10-12K would be more in line, IMHO.

 

[JPMODL]

Ad says low miles, does not say the 8,000 or so are original. Based on carpets and front seat, I believe it would be 108,000 miles.

Ad says low miles, does not say the 8,000 or so are original. Based on carpets and front seat, I believe it would be 108,000 miles.

And the A/C compressor has been replaced, a new master cylinder, etc.

 

[TNTrooper428]

Rebuilt engine, repainted a few years back, along with seat and carpet suggest this is not an 8000 mile car. I like it regardless but a bit on the high side.

 

[saforwardlook]

I would assume it is 108K miles, but well maintained ones.

Nice looking car with seemingly a lot of careful work done on it judging from the underhood photos. I doubt it was ever driven in winter.

Driver seating position is soiled and there are tears in the bottom seat cover and the carpet is dirty as well. The engine has been rebuilt and the car repainted with bumpers that could use replating, so I doubt this happened in 8K miles. The interior isn't sunburned either, which makes me believe the driver seat tears are not from too much heat making the cloth fragile.

Given the fairly wide gap between the passenger door and the front fender, I wonder whether some body work has been done in that area with a poor door fit accompanying the work - maybe.


edit - it looks like the last four posts including mine were made about the same time....................!

In addition to what is noted above, It has an after market carb with electric choke. A/C tubing has been painted in spots where it should be bare metal. VIN tag on driver's door shows paint over spray. Dash looks to have been resprayed, appears to have some mold growing on the headliner. This is a 108k car, and it is way overpriced, probably worth in the neighborhood of $8K with the stained carpets and torn driver's seat. Would also need photo's of underside and trunk to make a fair evaluation.

Why is he yelling at us in the ad.

 

[Droppedatbirth]

I think there is a five minute YouTube video about this car that I just watched the other day.

 

[Turboomni]

Man you guys have good eyes!

It's a good thing I'm not in the market. This looks like my Grandfathers car, with the exception of he had the 360 and stock wheels. He visited here in the early to mid seventies and took off with my parents in their car on vacation. While they were gone I cleaned it up nicely, went to the "auto recycling center" and got an unbroken cruise control switch for it, installed it, test drove it all over until they got back. I really liked that car.

Had I known what was coming, I'd have pulled every cruise switch / lever I could find...especially the tilt / telescope ones...

I like the car and I'm not a fan of 1972's, however "FUREY" leads me to believe he's not a Mopar fanatic.

The car appears to have been worked on and not in the usual amateurish way. (garage flipper). Some observations, first off, acid rain de-chroming of the front bumper, not unusual for a un-garage car from the Northeast (car is located in NJ), engine rebuilt "SOFT LOBE AND A GREAT RUMBLE" cam has ruined it IMHO, plus the Cragers, but that can be easily undone.

"AS YOU CAN SEE BY THE ENGINE BAY PICTURES, IT'S BRAND NEW INCLUDING THE INNER WHEEL WELLS." Don't really understand that, new inner wheel wells? Why? Did this car have a front clip done on it? Accident? He says the bumpers are original, confusing.
Brags all about no rust and gives lame excuse about not able to show pictures to back up the claim. Missing throttle kick down spring, GM'ified upper radiator hose, is it a correct hose? Some other small things noticed in the engine bay that are odd.

Like I said much work went into this and not amateurish but they missed a few spots.

Spot #1

Spot #2 This is way more than 100k miles of grime.

Now to what I find that is correct (rarely correct) and has been inquired about and discussed here. TAILPIPES! Correct end curve and slash, although hanging a little too low these are correct as on my 1968 Fury back in 1970 and I have documented with historical period 1969 cop car Fury's that these are correct and I wonder where he got them.

Now if it were a 'Triple Pickle' we'd have a winner!

High bid was $9,921

He should have been happy with that.

 

[tbm3fan]

Taking his second bite at the apple now. Those second bites have a low success rate if the price is close to the original first try. People remember and start to avoid the seller. Two days left and no takers.
