Now that I think about it, the same yard (a couple of years later) had a '68 Dodge Charger. It was a genuine hemi 4 speed (99% sure it was manual from memory) car that was RHD and registered. The price...$18,000. Having said that, 18K was a lot of coin for a used american car back then. I don't know where that car ended up.

I don't know where that car ended up. I remember that Charger, I think it was B5 blue. Last time I saw it at the Chrysler show at Fairfield about 12 years ago. I believe now it lives in Parkes country NSW.I also remember around the mid eighties the favourite price tag for everything american was $6000. I bought my 66 GTO for $6000, most of my mates bought similar cars around the same time all paid $6000 for them. Even in 95 I bought a 74 Cutlass coupe, I paid $6000 for it.I bought my 70 Challenger I own now in 99, paid $7500 for it, I thought I was getting ripped off....
