Too many taillights, there should only be two  each side. Probably the same 
old story, someone's project that "they'll get to  some day". Here in my 
town, they just tore down a shed which didn't have a  door. They found a '59 
Corvette, IIRC the inspection sticker was  1964.
 
Linked  are pictures of a '72 Charger I bought out of a guys garage, where 
it had been  since 1981, as you see it for $1000 (except for the wheels I 
had kicking  around). Had no particular use for it, but couldn't resist the 
price. The  price included the Road Runner sheet metal on the wall and the 
Hemi 4 speed in  the trunk. I tripled my investment with the sale of those. 
There is also a  clip of a "full on" Charger of that era. The gas mileage is 
miserable, but the  4.8 0-60 is still pretty respectable. Particularly at 
$4200. Someone bought  that car off me for their wife.
