This is a startling level of restoration for a fake. Most startling, of course, is that they'd get so much right and completely fail on the dash. R/Ts got the Rallye dash. Period. It was optional on everything else including the T/A and the Challenger 340, but with the R/T model it was included. There's a little too much "paint it black" happening underneath and there are detail issues underhood. It's like they were almost done when the market collapsed and realized they were gonna have one very-expensive fake. They still do, and why anyone would make a 318 car look like a factory 440 installation still confounds me. If you're gonna jam a 440 in there, you might as well have some real fun.
It's probably worth it for the level of work it appears to have, but I'd still count it at least six or eight grand too high.
