Greetings:
I know this isn't a C-body but the seller of this '79 Cordoba 300 says that he will use this car for a demolition derby if it doesn't sell. It really looks too nice to destroy and I don't think they made many of these Cordoba 300s. Sadly, I am not currently in a position to purchase it.
[cgi.ebay.com]
His "buy it now" seems a bit high but he does have the "make an offer"
option.
I have to admit that I really hate demolition derbys as they often destroy the last vestages of affordable (and desireable) '60's and '70's cars like C-body Mopars.
Thanks!

It appears to be a nice car but if he feels the car is worth 4 grand he isn't going to demolition derby the car . I think $1,500. may be more of a realistic price .
Whats with the red stripes down the side ?

I hope so... I hate to see decent Mopars meet their end.
That stripe is unique. I guess the previous owner was a bit creative.

The lister did say he changed his mind about demoing the car.
Lover of C-bodies since I was eight years old (1970). Drove a '67 Sport Fury for 13 years, coming back home to a C with my grandfather's 1968 VIP.

I believe that this car shared it's platform with a limited edition Chrysler 300 that had a hurst shifter in it I am thinking that only 3000 of them were made.
However I don't have as much info on Chryslers as I do Dodges.

If any of them were "driver" material, I would drive them. but none of them are. I will offer the parts I can't use to this site. I also have a 67 Dodge Coronet 2-door hardtop that I hope to restore.
