There are plenty of things in life where the “spare me the details” concept is in order, to keep from bombarding listeners with so much information that the speaker loses their audience. However, I can’t think of too many instances in the automotive world where the less-is-more notion is ever a good thing, and unfortunately, the seller of this 1969 Dodge Charger subscribes to that theory as he offers us very limited info to go on about his B-Body. But if you’ve been in the market for a second-generation Charger project, this one might be worth a look. Located in Clifton, Colorado, it can be found here on eBay with a buy-it-now price of $28,000.
Some of the information we do know about this Charger is that it was originally red with a white vinyl top. However, judging from the current patina, it looks like it was many moons ago since the car sported red paint or a vinyl top. There’s also no mention of a VIN tag. The good news is that the body is said to have had the rear quarter panels replaced and the front fenders reworked, and from what we can see the doors and rocker panels don’t look that bad. So it does seem like there’s been a good head start on the bodywork for the next owner.
No information is given about the interior, but it appears to be devoid of parts in most of the areas we can see, although in one of the photos there is a steering wheel visible so maybe it does still have a dashboard. The inside door panels, headliner, rear seat, and package tray have all been removed, and no word on whether or not they are included with the sale of the car. It does look like there is a considerable amount of stuff residing inside the car, and there are some other photos showing more parts like taillights and a console shifter, but the pictures are difficult to comprehend and it’s hard to understand exactly what you are (and as importantly not) getting here.
It doesn’t look like the inside of the trunk area has received any attention yet, and no reason given why the restoration stalled after the bodywork was begun. There’s also no specific information given about the drivetrain, other than it’s a 440 cubic inch engine with a 727 TorqueFlite automatic transmission. Both are said to be in need of rebuilding, and it is unknown whether or not either is original to this Charger.
There’s also no mention of the chassis or any information about the underside of the car, and again, with the photos that are supplied, it’s hard to really tell about the overall condition underneath. But this is a second-generation Charger and demand for these vehicles is through the roof, and we’ve seen a lot of these cars that look a whole lot worse. There is also an option to make an offer, so perhaps the owner might consider selling for less. What are your thoughts on this 1969 Dodge Charger?
