I'll have whatever Mike is smoking. Lots of fellows on FBBO have shopped carefully and bought very solid, running cars for $25k-$30k. Even in a world where folks think these things go for asking price on eBay (and even when they sell, they wind up returning to the auction block due to shill bidders), only someone who has failed to study the market properly would be foolish enough to get suckered into paying $15k for a rusted out, base 318 '69 Charger. By the time anyone is out of the hole with this thing, they'll be way past the expense of something already restored with a VIN and mill that has bragging rights - and that's sad, because there's nothing wrong with 318 Chargers other than the crack pipe prices thrown on them.

@@TwoDollarGararge That Ranger is an extreme sale - an outlier of actual value. Could you repeat that sale multiple times over? I doubt it. Just because one fool paid that much doesn't prove it's worth it (especially since you and I both know there are much better Rangers out there for $5k). P.S.: There's also the remote possibility of outlier sales due to proxy buyers for TV shows. I can see MT/Discovery overpaying for something random if they needed it ASAP for a shoot.

I love the commenters who think 15k for that is too much, it's a freaking 69 charger, doesn't matter it's a 318 car nobody will restore it to stock. I live in PA that car would sell in less than an hour, I kid you not last summer someone posted a 69 318 car, no engine trans, glass, interior, no trunk floor even the frame rails behind the diff were gone, he wanted 10k and it sold in 30 minutes. I really hate when they say you'll never get back what you have in it. Those aren't car guys, they probably drive a beige carry, it's about passion, if a 69 charger is your dream car and that one is all you can afford to pay to start with doesn't matter the cost to have your dream, if you pick a car with the idea of resale value it's not your dream, your not really a car guy, best stick to buying Honda civics if that is your determining factor.
