Default hi all

just wanted to say hello.. ive been looking for a dodge challenger for a while now.. mostly Ebay.. and am amazed at how expensive those cars are...


i had a 71 back in 1979 paid 1000$ for it.. it has a 318 slap stick.. i guess my dream car (that i could actually almost afford) would love a rally 340 4 speed

nothing much worth writing about.. an '99 F-150

and a 1990 firebird for my 'fun car' 215,000 miles on the thing.. still runs great...

There is a new Challenger coming up in a few years which would give you time to save. Good luck on the search and enjoy the forums!

The prices of muscle cars have gone up considerably over the last dozen years or so. It's still possible to get a good car though. Hope you find what your looking for.

what do you guys think about ebay for searching for challengers.. i hate to buy site unseen but there are not many up my way (maine) in the local classified rags...

hemmings look to be way out of my budget 13-17,000

ive looked at cragslist but seem to peruse ebay mostly.. any suggestions...


PS: is that a rumor or is it true? a retro challenger!! still id probably want an oldie!!

I would have a hard time buying a car from ebay. Might want to make some trips to some of the closer Mopar shows. There's always something for sale in the vendor and show areas. Good luck with your search.
