Original Dodge Challenger

That does look good and if as said in the ad. is a survivor rather than a restoration, even better.
But, its always something I find very dodgy (no pun intended), it says 'private sale', but the Ad. sounds like a trade Ad. a quick google of the mobile No. given and sure enough, lots of cars for sale, not all at once and always a different location given. So why hide being a trader?
I believe that Car & classic (& some other advertisers) don't publish the seller's actual phone number, they route through a different temporary number. If they reuse the numbers could this be the reason?But, its always something I find very dodgy (no pun intended), it says 'private sale', but the Ad. sounds like a trade Ad. a quick google of the mobile No. given and sure enough, lots of cars for sale, not all at once and always a different location given.

I could be completely wrong of course........
I had a lovely 69' rag top SS 396 when i got engaged in 78' very nice car, worth a mint now lol...............
a mate had a 69' Z28 years back, full cowl induction, M21 4 speed, fab car, the subtle changes to the body made the car look really mean,
the rear quarters and sail panels are very similar to the Challenger, must be the sharp body lines as the Cuda's rear quarters look rather bloated, probably why Plymouth fitted the rear call out decals to try and slim the rear of the car down lol......................
Mines coming along now, all the Glass and window lifts , locks and handles in and working on the off side, door glass was fun, so long since i removed it did'nt have a scobby how it went back !
But as ever 10 coats of looking at and one can work it out!
Which means the Drivers side should be a doddle!............................................

You're right a number of publishers/websites do this, it gives some privacy and means Car & Classic etc. can tell how many calls you've received too. Checkatrade do the same. I work in publishing and we used to do the same with private advertisers.I could be completely wrong of course........

Wheels are a personal thing, i like them, but as the add for this car states the fronts rub which is annoying , i had big rims on one of my toys,
looked great but the fronts rubbed when parking, and the backs rubbed when the rear seats were used..............
I'l probably just stick with 15's but North Hants are out of stock of the two styles i was going to order.
