About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

Restored by Legendary Motorcars. Paint looks very good other than a few minor blemishes throughout. Panel gaps and fit could use a little work. Brightwork looks good but has quite a few scratches as does the rear glass. Engine compartment has signs of wear and use since the restoration. Underneath was undercoated at some point and is now showing signs of use and road rash. Interior is in good shape with some fading on the tops of the door panels and rear interior panels. Console has some wear as well. A sound but used older restoration.

Market commentary

In 2008 this was a $130,000 no-sale here. At the Leake OK City sale in February of last year it was a $125,000 no-sale, then sold four months later at Leake Tulsa for $165,000. The consignor and the Indy bidders must know something not apparent when looking at the car because this result is cheap for any Hemi Challenger, even one restored eight or nine years ago.
