Rare "barn fresh" mopar

[Bryan Z]

Very low production, only 384 of these 1979 R/T's were built with E58 4bbl 360, even less had t-tops! Looks like it might clean up pretty nice. Who knows, put it on Ebay and it might even make some $$$.

Sorry this car isn't mine. I just wanted to alert fellow mopar fans to a hard to find car. Although F-bodies lag behind other mopars in value, having all three options (A57 package, t-tops, E58 4bbl 360) on one F-body is extremely rare. The gas crisis in May of '79 virtually brought the automotive year to an early end. V-8's were almost impossible to sell in that environment. BTW, those wheels were optional that year, as the car in the '79 Aspen brochure had a set.
Since the car is located about 35 minutes away from my house, I tried to contact the seller just so I could see the car in person and get some more pictures/information. Seller never emailed back. The car might be already be sold. I really think this car might get a lot more money if advertised in Hemmings or on ebay. Maybe it might resurface again someday, probably with a higher pricetag, though.

I don't get it? If the guy never emailed you back, how do you know if it has a 360ci 4bbl (E58)package? It may be a 360ci 2bbl!? The ad only says "79 Dodge aspen R/T with a 360 and t-tops".

I just missed a 1980 318 Aspen R/T t top car with no rust and perfect int for $1200. Looked up numbers and was 1 of 79 built.

DANG!
