Anyone have a clue what this thing is worth? I don’t… 1973 Challenger, 50,000 miles, 440 Magnum, 4 speed. Pretty clean, drives nice but the 440 was not the stock motor. ![http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh214/TORQDSS/X1.jpg](http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh214/TORQDSS/X1.jpg) ![http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh214/TORQDSS/X2.jpg](http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh214/TORQDSS/X2.jpg) sorry about the crappy cell phone pics. ---

Just say, Sir your vehicle is a 35 yr old v8 gass guzzler… We can replace this vehicle at Manhiem for $500-700… However since it has low milage for the year i will give you $900! See what he says 🤣 ---

What is this, E-body day on NYSpeed? :lol: I’d wager in the low twenties, if it was an original big-block car. '73 was past cutoff for high-compression muscle cars. But I’d throw on a sleeveless Deep Purple tee, light a Marb Red and roll in it :tup: ---

Hrmm…depending on the truck he may not be as crazy as you think. I would watch this auction: [http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks\_\_\_1973-Dodge-Challenger-Sublime-440-Recent-Restoration\_W0QQitemZ260277465168QQddnZCarsQ20Q26Q20TrucksQQddiZ2282QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item260277465168&\_trkparms=39%3A1|65%3A-1|240%3A1318&\_trksid=p4506.c0.m245](http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks___1973-Dodge-Challenger-Sublime-440-Recent-Restoration_W0QQitemZ260277465168QQddnZCarsQ20Q26Q20TrucksQQddiZ2282QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item260277465168&_trkparms=39%3A1%7C65%3A-1%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p4506.c0.m245) Very similar car. Not original motor either, you can tell because when it is the original motor, they make a point to tell you 500 times throughout the ad. Striping looks a little odd to me, missing the R/T decals on the side. Could be a quicky resto-job on a plain-jane 318 car. Start with a white 318 2bbl, out pops a sublime 440 4bbl car, instant classic! ---
