1971 Dodge Charger R/T - $110,000 - Madison, NH - 1971 Dodge Charger R/T, built between July 10 and Sept. 15, 1970. I personally went to the dealer and ordered the specifications I wanted and was available with my specifications. I received the 71 R/T in early October. I was able to request all 70 "running gear" as they called it then as it was available. It's a 440 RB Magnum Engine with a 4 BBL manifold D & A rare 4 BBL factory carburetor. It also has a locked rear end with special front & rear suspension. It has a tac only; no clock/tac as in 70. It has the super wide brakes front & rear; no power equipment at all. The build window sheet has all items listed & is correct. It has the console & ram/air scoop option. The build window sheet came with the vehicle.
Everything is all factory stock 100%. The exhaust is still factory, mufflers & tail pipes replaced with factory correct items. The chrome tips are 100% original; not replacements. I have all the original parts that have been replaced such as shocks & brake shoes. Drums are original. I also have two sets of wheels (tires & rims). Factory came with Ralley Rims & G-60 x 15. Second set of four factory spoke type H-70-14 for normal driving. Reason for many years the raised white letter G-60-15 Goodyear were just so hard to get & so costly I used 14 & new chrome factory wheels; not Ralley. There is no rust anywhere and actual mileage is 46,350. However it changes as I use it when the ground is bare and dry. These pictures were taken during this summer of 2010 & 2011 in my yard and at a car show & rally after the show at a participant's neighbor's home in Carroll County, N. H. 2011. Paint, top, stripes and glass are all original except left hand rear rollup window. It was replaced in 1985. Always kept inside and warm.
Reason I am selling is I was advised by my doctor to not drive it as my left knee has been replaced twice. It looks like my next one is not far off and it is the last available.
I have owned & driven this vehicle for over 44 years & it has always brought me home & it has always been in style.

This guy's so full of shit, and so out of line on his price I don't even know where to begin. 1970 running gear? Rare factory 4bbl? What's with the completely monkey-fucked engine bay? Never mind the price; this thing redefines the term "sticker shock" due to tacky adhesive add-ons everywhere. You just know the paint fade will never allow those quarter decals to be forgotten without a repaint.

This jackass went to the dealer and either ordered the cheapest Charger R/T he could (drum brakes) or found it on the lot, while the salesman patted him on the head and assured him it was a 1970 drivetrain (and the casting dates would all be 1970, so it must be true!).

It's a 1-of-336 four-speed car. The transmission is the rarity, not the carburetor. The engine-bay originality has been destroyed from the water neck to the expensive original valve covers, nasty wiring and the attempted concealment thereof, and on and on. Low mileage notwithstanding, this is a $30K car, $35K at the high end. Had this idiot not fucked with it, he might have gotten double the lower sum... but he did, so he won't. Shame, too. There's a lot to like here.
 
I honestly think you're being rather nice to the guy.

It's just not possible to take this ad seriously. :dgt:
