Description

Genuine barn-find restoration opportunity – ready for its next chapter.

After more than 20 years of ownership, this classic Charger is looking for a new custodian with the vision to bring it back to its former glory. Originally purchased with full restoration intentions, life has taken a different turn and the car has spent too long tucked away in storage. Previously a reliable daily driver, the car remains complete and solid in all the right places. It’s running, with brakes recently tidied, though the radiator will need attention and transport is required. Currently on exemption, the plates are on hold — including the standout VJ770. Powered by the legendary 265 Hemi straight-six with a 4-speed manual, this is a proper old-school driver’s car. The interior presents well for its age, with an intact headliner and generally solid trim, aside from a crack in the dash. Externally, it shows its years with visible rust and cosmetic work required, including a few areas needing attention for WOF — exactly what you’d expect from an honest barn find. This Charger is ripe for restoration or sympathetic revival and is priced to move to someone ready to give it the care it deserves. Inspections welcome — happy to answer questions and arrange viewings.
