I've seen that seller before. You'd think if you were looking for a car to make a quick buck on, you'd invest 10 minutes in getting an idea what it's worth before you buy[}]

He probably thinks he stole a $25K car, and is rubbing his hands together with glee waiting for that bidding war[)]

At least we get to see some more pictures of that beauty for the week[8D]

Drum brakes, non power. Antennae on wrong side. Was dual mc available? My favorite color. Blue mist metallic. Is that a repro trunk mat? Has fold lines. Nice paint, maybe a repaint. Beautiful car. Wish I could afford it. What a ride. Would have to add air. jimmijim

Here's a prime example of how fragile genuine Broadcloth is. Despite having only 9300 miles on it, the original upholstery has been replaced with some unispiring 1970's type of crushed velour material.

I like that material. I had a 79 Nova Concours- pretty lame car, but same seat material. I LOVED the seats in that car[:X]

It would be cool to buy that and have it shipped to Ebon in TX. Soon as he finished the A/C install, fly out and drive it home![8D]

Yes the dual MC is correct, my 61 Cruiser had a dual MC too. I THINK just the disk brake cars had a single MC, although I know someone will correct me if I'm wrong!

Jeff, someone added the dual master cylinder to your '61. The dual master cylinder didn't come out until '63 at which time it became standard on all non-disc brake cars except it sort of sticks in my mind that '63 Standards and maybe '64 Challengers had only the single. As you say, disc brakes had a single master cylinder.

Right-O, Paul; single-piston master cylinder was standard on 1963 Standards and 1964 Challengers. Dual-piston master cylinder was a $9.01 option (retail) for the 1964 Challenger! BP

I stand corrected... I should have known, nothing else on that car was stock!

Looks just as beautiful as the last time I saw it.[] Just as out of my reach as well.

Poor fellow! He'd be fortunate in this market to get his starting price, let alone twice that.
