The upholstery on the seats might just not look right because of the glare from the sun washing it out? I believe the pattern of the fabric should match the fabric that's on the door panels. Sounds like it might be a neat car to have and drive around in for $2K or, hopefully, less. Like Ghulet, I've always had a thing for those big 4-door hardtops. I'd never put any serious money into it though, unless it was a true labor of love.

Good lord, it looks like they offered just about every color under the sun in 1970! Here's a Dodge paint chart from that year They had SIX shades of green that year! There was a light green that seemed popular back then, sort of a sage green I think it's called, that I always thought was pretty nice. Probably what Chrysler called the "light green poly", while that olive color was probably the "dark green poly". I wonder what shade of green that Charger with the white roof is? Looks metallic, and emerald to me, and I don't think it really matches up to anything on that paint chart. Of course, sometimes those scanned-in images don't always reflect the true color. I got to experience first-hand what a difference color can make when it comes to heat, when I bought my second '79 New Yorker. It's midnight blue, with a matching cloth interior that's sort of a corduroy pattern, with a bit of vinyl trim in places. My first NYer is light creme, with a matching leather interior. On hot days, the blue one becomes downright brutal, and heats up much more quickly, and much worse, than the creme one. I knew color made some difference, but didn't think it would be THAT noticeable! Still, that's changing the color of everything...body, roof, and interior. I wonder how much of a difference changing just the roof would make? Those old 60's cars (and for all intents and purposes, a '70 Charger is still a 60's car) tended to have better fresh-air ventilation than later cars, what with the vent windows, roll-down rear windows, the big fresh-air vents under the dash, etc. Plus, they weren't sealed as tightly, which probably helped with heat build-up. And I imagine even little details, like the way the side glass curved in so much more on the 70's cars, letting in more of the sun's rays, made a difference. So even with a black roof, something like that Charger might not be too bad. My '68 Dart used to be black, with a black vinyl interior, and I don't remember it being too bad. I was a lot younger back then, though...22 when I bought the car, and 23 when I repainted it back to its original white, so I probably had a higher tolerance for pain back then!

You are correct. We have four snowbirds on our street. They are here now, and won't be heading back until after Easter. Finally, the natives will have this place to ourselves again. :D Some snowbirds are what we call "Bluebirds". They drive those big bus campers around the Sun Belt and return home after Easter.

BLEACH AND HOT WATER??? DID YOU TRY THIS ON A COMMANDER???

Sadly, consumers just took a huge hit. True Car.com was posting new car prices that fit in the market place - and guess what, the general public could purchase a vehicle without a hassle for hundreds less. I bought a new 2011 Honda Accord SE last year using AMEX Zag as a service - then used the price obtained to go back to internet managers to see if they wanted to sweeten their offers. I would hop onto trueCar and noticed they did an about face and actually showed real costs - helping me lower my final price further. Two months ago, I looked at True Car and their prices were hundred of dollars less than Amex Zag. In one of the latest auto industry papers, true car has appologized to the auto industry and promises to "be a better website "by telling about a dealers services rather than giving a real honest a goodness vehicle price. Sounds like the consumer just took in where the sun doesn't shine on this one - all for the sake of True car ensuring it receives its precious $299 to $399 finders fee it receives per car when it is sold. Sounds like a lose lose for the the consumer and a win win for the dealer and True car. So, let your friends know don't use Truecar, use other services. If True car really wants to be fakecar or nonconsumer car, that is what they should be stuck with. Boycott them!!! So, Consumers, please boycott trueCar for the foreseeable future. Consumers finally had a fair ally in their hands, but the dealers have to make the thousands on every car or else, they'll have to shut the lights off. TrueCar is sucking up to them - and not the consumer who "pays their fee".Greed is something that has to stop. Say no to TRUECAR! If you use them now, you are paying too much! Cars.com works just as good now, if you like buying yourself.
