    Shit - $7500 is a bunch of money for a plain old 770 with an ugly paint job.

    Is finance available on the car I wonder?
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Yes they are but the General Lee's are not a Valiant Charger. They are a Dodge. Totally different.

    Fuck me. I shouldn't have trashed mine.

    What's an E38 or E49 go for now?

    General Lee was a 69 Charger. Of the Dodge (American) variety. When I had my E38 we saw a couple of Maori blokes in an orange Valiant Charger with the confederate flag and an 01 on the side in Welly, might have been the one you saw. That was ironic too There's a heee-uge difference between an Ausie and American Charger. There's actually a bloody nice 68 on tardme now for a cool 68K.

    One of the original tv series cars recently sold in the US, after being restored, for 11 million. I shit you not.

    Haven't seen any for sale for a while now, but I believe a nice E49 will easily fetch over a hundred now. Not bad for a car that cost three and a half brand new.

    There's a really sweet E55 replica for sale the dude wants 40 grand for.

    I'd love an E55! Where's that one?

    Skunk Control just wants me to get another Charger...

    They're increasing in price faster than I can save. Stock 770's go for around the $12K mark.

    Here's an NZ site for Mopars.

    *Mutters darkly of long lost toys*

    Apparently my old '71 Buick Skylark drophead coupe recently sold for an obscene sum, well over ten times what I got for it.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon
