1966 Charger HEMI 4 speed Restoration Candidate at MECUM January 2025 auction

[Dean Prevolos]

Here is a restoration project car that might be worth looking at Mecum in January 2025. The bones are all there but needs the attention to detail completed. Especially the gauge cluster and dash look worn out. No underside photos or trunk photos. Original spinner hubcaps, interior original but needs replacement, engine bay looks original especially the black rubber cap on the air cleaner. I looked for years for one and could never find one for my car so I just added a breather tube. I like the engine lift bracket on the front of the engine, but they removed the one from the rear. No battery in a few photos and then I see a battery in other photos. Just thought it would be an interesting conversation on our 66-67 Forum.

I like its weathered look.

 

[Runcharger]

Nice looking car. I'd finesse a few things and drive it alot.

if that's original paint, don't touch it

 

[RemCharger]

I don't think it's original paint, the under hood pics. What happened to all the hood side bumpers?

 

[RemCharger]

It has 4 way flashers, and it was hot off the press in 65. Rare I would think? Or was the dash out.

I must be missing something. It looks mint to me. I guess I have low standards. I wonder what the selling estimate is?

I agree. That car is screaming to be driven and used without worrying about a stone chip!
