Selling or Wanted Price: $4,995
Description:
I'm selling my 1986 Dodge Shelby Charger. With SDAC coming just north of me, you should buy it and have a lot of fun at the show. This is a solid 12-second car as it sits, with a fuel system and big turbo ready for someone to turn it loose and really go fast. While there is much more money into it, I realize I'll never get it all back out. So it is priced at less than half and ready for a quick sale: $4,995.

CAR:
Found the car in CT in 2006. It was a clean, almost rust free body with shiny paint. I transferred all the drivetrain and go fast goodies into the car over a 3 year period. It is well sorted out now, and a consistent track performer running 12.60's at 15-16 PSI during 4 trips to the track in the past 5-6 years. Some of the vinyl graphics, like the pin striping around the skunk stripe, were missing or removed from the car when I got it. Interior is amazingly clean, with great stitching in the headrests still, and only one small burn hole in the passenger seat bottom. The interior is complete with good armrest cover, only thing that hasn't been replaced is a shifter boot to fit over the A523/568 style shifter. Stock gauge faces were overlaid with white vinyl faces to match the Autometer/Mopar Phantom series gauges, so gauging looks like a complete set.
Underbody and floors were coated with some thin black undercoating before I got it, everything seems solid underneath. There is one ding in the front air dam and one large scrape in the passenger side front fender shown in the photos below. Other than that, the only real deterioration in the paint is in the roof gutter seam which has lost its paint in the seam. Doors and hatch are solid, no leakage problems, straight rear bumper cover even.

If you arn't local and need a second opinion, I'm sure JT and GreatLakes Hotrod can give another opinion of how straight this car is. With two young kids, I just don't have the time I used to to have fun with it, so it's time to find another home for her. Please let me know if you are interested.
I'll add more photos below.
