There are plenty of old cars seen in backgrounds of Roadkill Garage, and viewers often wonder what the plans are for them. On this Roadkill Extra, David Freiburger spills the details on the hulk of a 1972 Dodge Charger that’s been owned by either him or Steve Dulcich for a decade.

That Charger is nice, no dents, rust free, original body panels. Sweet!!👌👍

@mictlante 6 лет назад

Dulcich needs to post a site where he can post all cars he's willing to sell lol

@bradnimbus4836 6 лет назад

That's so heartbreaking. You get that a lot in my area. Some old farmer who has a classic F-100 who'd rather bury it for nothing than sell it for $2000.

@griffinsavoy 6 лет назад

TominBach DF has a son with a flat fender Jeep, Dulcich has kids and they went to the first Ziptie Drags with him. Even still, it's his/your stuff that you paid for. Nobody is entitled to it because they don't like what you're doing (or not doing) with it.

@2bitmarketanarchist337 6 лет назад

Dburger62 It's totally their right to do what they want but it still is a little sad. I guess I'm being a bit of a hypocrite here because I have a gokart I promised I'd build and a Cordoba someone owes me that I'd said I'd try to bring back to life, and theres a subaru GL wagon my father has that I think I've talked him into gutting and letting me weld the diff on and hooning the shit out of, If I ever get around to it and all that nonsense is just sitting...

@bradnimbus4836 6 лет назад

lol, yes yes, no one's entitled to it. Just ignore the flat deck pulling into your yard lmao

@15trucklt83 6 лет назад

Guys like him are the reason it’s impossible to find classic cars at good prices. People sit on them. Never doing anything with them. Then economics of supply and demand take over.

@JamesJ7851 6 лет назад

Sad to see that Charger just wasting away, when there are guys that would love to own that car, and bring it back to be a bitchin ride.

@DaveAppleton 6 лет назад

Dude if those cars were sat like that in the UK you would be using a metal detector to find what's left of them 😊

@jammygamer8961 6 лет назад

what do you mean?

@mibars 6 лет назад

RUST. Cars in UK stored outside, with damaged paint and stuff would rust away beyond hope in just a few years. Even in Poland, where we have better weather some 80's cars that some guy nearby collected and neglected somewhere in the 90's are already collapsing under their own weight...

@jasonleedham5678 6 лет назад

Oh yeah, when I watched the 5.0MG on HRG I was thinking about those castleated sections on the inner sills....

@jaymorrison2419 6 лет назад

@nicholaspasznik6625 6 лет назад

Man, thats too bad. I love old mopars and wish I had the money to get one. Those Chargers are sweet cars when cleaned up.

@jamessimpson2674 6 лет назад

Lucky U guys ain't in Australia. Just looking on a site here and there is a fucked out 68 charger 318 auto just runs has rust and its AUD $45,900 ..... That's USD $35,611.51

@richardprice5978 6 лет назад

James Simpson nope didn’t pay that much for my G code but I have been throwing parts at it in the last couple of years

@richardprice5978 6 лет назад

EB15 I thought they made about the same amount of 2 gen Charger as 3 gens 90k~ for 69s and 80k~ for 72~ but in the past you’re right the 68-9 are more desirable but 1 gens are the odd ducklings and the 70 and up are seen as lesser

@eflizotte 6 лет назад

I had one in high school! Came out of the bottom of a barn... whole frame was basically Swiss cheese. I didn’t know any better when I was in high school and I was in love with the car. By the time I got done with disassembly, I realized it wasn’t a good idea to put any money into it so I sold it for basically the value of the hideaways and the ralley tails... good memories.

had i kept my 73 roadrunner, i'd have probably done the GT car thing like that speed shop that was mentioned. i like the idea of old good-looking sheet metal draped over a super high performance chassis and modern engine

@jimieljoseph2322 6 лет назад

Do it boys and just make those headlight covers work I don't even care if you use them as headlights I absolutely love this body style make this thing handle and move out and don't forget to use those headlight covers for some innovative theme. Oh yeah, you better go disc brakes all the way around. You guys have the best job in the world don't ever stop telling yourself that out loud.

@Rebel9668 6 лет назад

We had a '71 when I was a kid. Dad bought it new and they kept it till just before I turned 16 and sold it and I've wanted one ever since.

@SolamenteVees 6 лет назад

i know how you feel fam

@01trsmar 6 лет назад

Depends where in Canada you live ! Prairies didnt use road salt until the 80's or so.. Southern British Columbia cars are rust free.. I know,I am half Canadian and American...Went on Summer Holidays to see family as a kid in Canada,still go there for business dealings...Mind you 2 minutes from the U.S border lol..

@jasonskinner1555 6 лет назад

bud morse anywhere there is a lot of salt on the road in the winter it just roaches cars, I live in new Mexico and you find 70 s vehicles with very minimal rust :)

@darius2640 6 лет назад

Cant help but be impressed how much of a old car geek Freiburger is, all I think of when I hear charger is what I now learned is a mk2, black with white interior cruising miami streets, thats because of a tv show I used to watch

@darius2640 6 лет назад

@fordinpossession 6 лет назад

My 10-year old Son would LOVE that Ramcharger as a project truck for his Lawn Mowing business! He's always wanted something to represent his business that's not "what everyone else has"

@pancudowny 6 лет назад

WeatheredCross Then he better get a trailer, too... because that vintage of Ramcharger has an integral top.

@oldred9122 6 лет назад

I'm of the mentality that, if you let a car like that sit rather than selling it, you are doing a huge disservice to the car world. But maybe that's because I'm from Iowa, and letting a car just sit here is downright abusive.

@griffinsavoy 6 лет назад

OldRed91 I just can't understand the "fix it or sell it" mentality. No keyboard warrior (not directed at you, generally speaking) on the internet has any right to tell someone what to do with their stuff. If you want to let YOUR stuff, sit, that is your right. Nobody is entitled to it because they don't like what you're doing (or not doing) with it.

@oldred9122 6 лет назад

Dburger62 I agree with your point, but in Iowa, letting a car sit often means letting it rot into the ground. There is a point where a valuable piece of history is being deliberately destroyed. I agree there is nothing I can do since it is someone else's property, but it's still sad to witness.

@electrix6751 6 лет назад

The only good thing about where it sits is that the Charger is in dry, hot weather. It's hell on the interior and plastic parts but easy on the sheet metal.

@stevehardy6125 6 лет назад

The problem is people see a car like that sitting and expect you to give it to them. I have a few projects in my yard I'd part with but no one wants to pay fair value for them. They see them sitting and tell me I'm a dick because I won't sell it to them for $500

@jakobknapp2641 6 лет назад

I'm also in iowa. letting them sit is hell

@joshuamoore24_7 5 лет назад

I owned a 1974 Dodge Charger SE Brougham Edition. It is yellow with a black top and wing Kragar SS rims. I painted the brake drums Fire Engine Red after wire wheeling them when I was changing the brake shoes. I painted the interior with touch up paint automotive. I had the car looking brand new, inside and out. It had the Opera window slats. 3rd Gen.

@01trsmar 6 лет назад

Love the 71 - 74's as well..

@redracer77 3 года назад

I agree. I have never cared for the opera windows on the 71-74 Chargers. I had a 71 Charger SE with opera windows. They make a blind spot for when you are backing up and I don't like the "shark gill" looks of them. I have had a 73 and 74 hardtops without the windows and the visibility is like night and day. 73-74 are my favorites because of the tail lights and what we called the Nike Swoosh side windows. Keep up the good work!

@01trsmar 6 лет назад

The 72 Charger SE also had a different 1/4 window than that version.. They had 2 roof line/quarter window options for 72 ! Side marker lights dont turn me off from a 71 to a 72...most people dont notice ! Add a stroker 400 big block,make it look stock with Road Wheels (Magnum 500's) Restore it to a Charger Rallye (former RT).

@Komet163B 5 лет назад

Richard Petty raced a 1972 Charger starting mid year of 1972 season. Then a 1973 Charger through the end of the 1977 season. Changed to a Dodge Magnum for 1978, which he was unhappy with, causing him to switch to GM during the 1978 season. Thus ending his racing of Mopars. That is what i've found from my research.

@trillrifaxegrindor4411 5 лет назад

@WookieDrives 6 лет назад

Petty raced the third generation Charger until 1977, since NASCAR allowed you to run an older body style 3 years after its discontinuation. In 1978 he had to switch to the Magnum, and that that thing was such a brick and uncompetitive he ended up switching to GM products (Chevy and Olds) before years end.
