1968 Dodge Charger Hemi Custom - Cropped, Dropped, Shaved and Tubbed Description

EXCLUSIVE OPPORTUNITY
I am very pleased to announce that "IMAGN8", afully customized 1968 Hemi Dodge Charger with a Fuel Injected 472 Hemi, is being offered for sale to the general public! This amazing vehicle first debuted at SEMA and received numerous accolades for its style and innovation.Some well known and high-profile leaders in the automobile industry participated in the build process.The car has also been used by several famous celebrities, rappers and business executivesfor both public and private events. Some additionalhistoricaldetails of "IMAGN8" are being provided in the descriptions below (information is limited in order to retain theanonymityof the owner). Many personally owned and customized vehicleslike this never make their way into the general market for sale. Some are sold at private events, or even listed at major automobile auction house events. The owner of this vehicle firmly believes that everyone should be allowed the opportunity to own something rare and unique. Therefore, eBay was also selected since it reaches a wide range of buyers on a worldwide basis. Please Note: The vehicle is also being marketed and listed for sale in other venues.
The current owner has had this car for several decades and actually drove it when he was in high school! The original set of keys still work in the trunk lock and ignition.From concept to reality... the car took over 14 years to design, engineer and build at a cost of almost $375,000.00!!! This process was photographed in detail. All information, including cost data, work orders, parts lists, concept drawings, renditions and invoices will be provided to the buyer.
Simply driving this car down the road results in people of all ages pointing frantically; trying their hopeless-best to catch up for a better look. Stopping for gas creates crowds gathering in amazement; eagerly waiting in excitement to hear the deep thunderous roar of the Hemi engine. Their eyes and smiles instantly widen as the car comes to life; signaling that is was much more than they had ever anticipated. Let the custom sound system can kick-in from the three amplifiers (two 800W and one 500W) to send them an additional and surprising pulsing-vibration from the huge deep bass speakers. For fun, you can adjust the air bags and the car unexpectedly heaves itself into position as a stance of dominance,power and aggression! They have never even had the chance to glimpse the custom trunk features, interior design, clean and meticulous engine compartment, or the sleek and ornate underside of the car...yet people are already talking about your car.... and telling their friends...and you are not even at a car show! There is no other 1968 Dodge Charger like this one on the planet and there likely never will be!
THIS CAR WILL BE SOLD! There isNO SALES TAX on this "private sale"! The price is set at a fraction of what the car actually cost to make. You do not have to wait 14 + years, or spend the large amount of money it took to create this vehicle!
Good luck and please feel free to ask us any questions about the details and features of the car.
