Barn Finds located this 1968 Road Runner on Craigslist. The seller does not provide much detail on this originally 383 powered four speed car other than having a clear title. There appears to be an engine in there (in both the engine compartment and interior). The asking price is $3000. Is it worth it? Find the Craigslist ad here. More pics after the jump!
There’s not enough there to justify $3000. If it was a Hemi or a 440 car, maybe, but not a 383. There are just too many of those around.
Drop a 440 or Hemi in it, and it becomes a 440 or Hemi bird. It’s not like “numbers matching” is gonna mean anything for this rolling garden. Take $1700 off for the grass growing on the console and you’ve got a deal.
clearly some people are idiots. you can not toss a 440 into it and it will become a 440 bird… never was one. and yea ill go get a $15k motor add about 40k for restoration to have a car worth maybe 35… sounds great/.. NOT… price is right for someone who can restore themselves. and if the color is actually the Q5 turquoise, then its rare enough to demand a top runner price.
Never a fan of Barn Finds, that is such a stupid term anyways….Its just a way of getting more for a car..
You could drop a 383/440/Hemi in there and slap some clear coat on it and sell it for $80,000 as they do on t.v shows lol…
Seriously,$3000 is fine,you can go there and offer $2000 and work something out…
Its worth saving as any MOPAR is … if you don’t do it yourself if will be costly,but hey..
