Think PB is Expensive?

[RapidTransit]

I was searchin around ebay looking for some NOS sill plates and came across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MOPAR...64781601QQrdZ1

I just hope I won't be the poor shmuck that will have to pay for that.

What do you need sill plates for? I have a couple I'm pretty sure are off a charger.

Wow... looks like that guy was sniffing some exhaust that went through those mufflers before listing them on e-bay.

In LMC Truck they listed sill plates for 73-79 Ford Trucks at $999.90, or some other absurd amount. I think it was a typo and should have been $99.99, but you never know!

For a 70 Challenger, I need the NOS stuff

he's from michigan...thats the problem. half of the guys out here think their car is worth millions. mind you i have seen some of the sickest cars that were ever in production....more then once. the dream cruise is amazing every year. bottom line is, guys that work for the old big 3 overprice everything. i've been looking for years to find a 67-69 camaro that isn't 50,000

you'd be lucky to find a mint one for under 40, but there are some decent ones around here for like 25-35. But ya paintball isnt too expensive, it is if your under like 22. The thing that makes it an expesive hobby is the ongoing costs. Having a classic car or whatnot is a one time expensive purchase.

I'd say your always pumping money into a classic car. I've never met anyone that's bought a classic car and not dropped a butt load of cash workin on it. Paintball isn't tha bad once you get a real job. You figure about 70-100 bucks a weekend for paint/air/field as a high standard. That's not a problem until you get multiple expensive hobbies. Then it turns into trouble.

The guy who rents an apartment from he had a 68 RS with very little rust and an original drivetrain in good shape. He sold it about six years ago for guess how much? $800. I wanted to shoot him. I refrained from doing so because his reaction when I told him I could have gotten him 10k easially for that car. He wasn't very happy.

You can still pick up a very nice 6cyl 1st gen for 3-4k then you just have to put another 6k into it and you have a nice RS SS or Z28 clone.

The 69 charger ones might fit but they're not mint if that's what you're looking for.
I just took a light bar and some other parts off that car to the scrap yard because no one wanted them even though they were in excellant shape. I just feel bad destroying somthing that can never be replaced.

Fact is the most hard to replace part is the mufflers, a guy not too long ago paid $4,000 for a NOS rubber hose. E-Body NOS stuff is so expensive
