We just found this very clean 1968 Dodge Charger over in dry Eastern Washington. This car was abandoned in a farmer’s field around 1980 and it has sat ever since. It’s pretty complete except for the tail lights which somebody thought would look cool in a VW bug! The first pic is how we found it and the rest are of the car back together at the shop. Luckily most of the parts were stored in a storage shed and were spared sun damage.
It’s refreshing to see an E-body convertible with its original small block drivetrain. This purple 4-speed 318 car is all numbers matching, restored about 12 years ago. It’s one of just 78 convertibles made with this engine and tranny combo in 1970. Great pics from its current home in Boca Raton, Florida.

Talk about low mile survivors–Dash’s Dart has just 4,691 miles on the clock! The car has been in storage most of its life. It’s a 318 column shift auto car and the interior is like new. It was originally a Washington state car but now resides in Australia with Dash. More pics after the jump!

This week’s movie Mopar is the 1971 Plymouth Barracuda convertible from the Brady Bunch. It’s a plain jain B5 318 automatic car, but of course any 1971 Barracuda convertible is cool cause they made so few of them–just 722 in total. I had a hard time finding any clips with the Barracuda on YouTube, but I did manage to find one where Greg is at a drive-in with a date, only to have Bobby screw it up (along with the Barracuda’s convertible top). Check it out after the jump! Pic via IMCDB
This Florida 318-powered four door C-barge looks to be a real solid survivor. Seller claims it has 98,700 original miles with minimal rust. If this was local to me I’d be all over it… See two more pics after the jump and check it out the auction on eBay
Update: got bid up to $2,850 but reserve not met!
