You'll have to trust me on this, but there's a 1969 Charger in the main photo. You just have to look really closely, and once you spot the huge pile of rusty metal, you're halfway there.
A 1969 Charger looking horrible made its way to eBay earlier this week to look for a new home, hoping that not everybody is scared of useless metal sitting in a junkyard for God knows how long.
The car (though calling it a "car" is painfully unrealistic) comes with everything you see in the photos and several extras, including a roof, a front end, and a front clip. eBay seller nathapardo-0 says they have most of the parts to turn it into a roller, though it'll take plenty of work until this milestone is reached. You must feel comfortable welding all day long, as the first thing this Charger needs is to become a single piece of metal before standing on its wheels.
We're not getting too many specifics, but it's not hard to guess what happened with this Charger. The car probably spent the last decades outside, serving as a donor for another Charger. As a result, it lacks most parts, so if you believe it's still worth a restoration, you should assume it needs everything.
The engine is missing, but that's not necessarily bad news because you can put any V8 in this Charger. I'd go for a Hemi or a big-block Magnum, but the 1969 model year is known for the new 389 engines that were available with two- and four-barrel carburetors. They developed 290 and 330 horsepower, respectively.
The owner insists on the price factor, claiming this is the cheapest Charger on the market, though there's a good reason they can ask for more dollars on eBay. The vehicle is rough and needs a ton of work before even coming together in one piece, so the $3,000 price tag is still ambitious. The eBay statistics indicate that nearly 40 people currently monitor the listing, and the owner also enabled the Make Offer option in case some potential buyers have another deal in mind.
If you want to see the pile of Charger metal in person, you must travel to Provo, Utah. You'll need a trailer to take it home.
Dodge produced a little over 89,000 Chargers for this model year, and unfortunately, only a few are still around these days in tip-top shape. This model is living proof that some Chargers have to bite the dust to save others, so fingers crossed for someone out there to spot this listing and take it home. It'll probably take a while until we get more news about this Charger, but the seller promises their project is doable and worth the effort.
