Hey all!
I have a few question threads going about my FiFth and asked if I had a build thread so I thought I’d start one!
I found this on Offer Up in Phoenix, abandoned on a property that was purchased to flip.
Listed as an “Old Chrysler 300” and “make an offer, don’t know what they are worth” no keys and or title but he was working on getting a title.
I checked on it as a parts car for my 79 LeBaron Driver (Sold Today! Super Bowl Sunday!!!) after talking to the owner he said it should be worth a couple thousand dollars… Not wanting to insult him I explained there are few that know what these neat old Chryslers are and fewer than that who are crazy enough to dump a lot of money into an 08’s Chrysler that has been sitting for 20+ years outside.
I said I’d be interested in it but only at around $250-$500 depending on condition. He politely said no and I moved on.
Fast forward 3 months, he called and said the property is in escrow and the new owners will close this next week and he wants it off the property and I can have it for free if I can get it out of there that weekend… That was Friday at 5:30pm.
Saturday morning at 7am I was loading it on my car trailer and thrilled that it seemed fairly clean and complete.
