I usually prefer factory correct cars over modified ones but it’s hard to compare what was once a light green metallic 383 Road Runner with a titanium dark metallic and black, 525 horsepower 472 Hemi powered, 4 speed that just looks menacing. The crate motor wasn’t the only nod to modern technology either. Discovered by Bring A Trailer. Check out the original eBay auction as well. More pics after the jump!
The seller admits this thing is toast. The only usable body panels are the hood and roof. Still, it has a numbers matching drivetrain and comes with paperwork. So this will probably end up a rebody? Priced at $2,500. More pics plus Craigslist ad text after the jump!
Check out this wild 1968 Barracuda powered by a supercharged 520 inch Hemi with zero miles since completion. Said to have over $80,000 invested, the Buy It Now price is $50,000. This is apparently the third time that it has been posted for sale. Charmed? I might want a new fuel cell though. Find more detail at Street Legal TV and be sure to check out the auction action on eBay. More pics after the jump!

A 1967 Dodge Coronet said to be a Mexican version is very unique with its Charger grill with hidden headlights. Sporting the original slant six with a three speed manual, it is said to be rust free. I guess there’s not much road salt used in Mexico. See more at Bring a Trailer. Check out the Craigslist ad here. More pics after the jump!
A 1965 Chrysler New Yorker that was for sale tugs at the heart strings of a prospective buyer and, in the process, he writes a pretty good piece about the classic C-body. Read the story at Curbside Classic. More pics after the jump!
