considering the mad amounts that have been paid for muscle cars, that doesn't seem that much.

More than I'd want to pay mind, but then unless if comes with Daisy, it isn't my cup of tea.

I think it was a bargin someone got. There was alot of time and money put into this car. I loved the Dukes of Hazzard. Remember this is the car that jump at the start of every show. The story is worth a read.

That IS alot of cash for a car which so obviously non-original
And restored to a standard FAR above as-built...

I remember they used dozens of these cars for all the jumps and stunts in every show, plus a few for publicity.

Now if it was the "Bullitt" Dodge Charger...

Chris Evans was talking about it this morning
It was the original car, since then 300 were wrecked during filming.
