Do you think they are still for sale? I'll take them all! LOL

Those were the asking prices. They probably sold for less. 1989 is the year I purchased my 70 Bee which had a couple spun rod bearings. Ended up getting it for $600. I turned down more than twice that much on the way home with it while I had stopped to get gas in the tow truck. Back then I found a 70 Charger R/T in good condition, but needing an engine. Guy quoted me $400 for it. I didnt get it either. Man I wish I could go back in time & fix my stupidity.

Hell the price of that book is a bargain, I think they are $6.99 now.

Anyone remember "Solid Southern Cars" as a dealer/seller, that sold a LOT of Mopars in that book.

Wonder if they are still around under a different name.

yeah great deals back then, when they weren't really collector cars yet & they were just still "old used cars", for reasonable prices...

The Mopars were a great deal, but we had to suffer though seeing women dressed like this.

A time machine would be nice, for the cars...LOL... But stay away from 80's women's fashion...

That's what happens when our gov't has a love affair with money printing.
