one Dodge dealership in Darien New York kept a 1969 Charger 500 with a hemi until 1989, and then finally sold it (with 1270 miles on it from parades and events) It's just been sold at BJ for 341K


Speedy Greco and his brother used it as an attraction for their dealership. They displayed the car in the showroom, took it on parades and special events. 

The following year, in 1971, the Greco brothers parted. Speedy's brother kept the dealership. 

Speedy left with a couple of new cars, one of them being this '69 Charger 500. However, the Charger 500 was never titled or fitted with license plates. 

He kept it until 1989, when he put it up for sale to raise capital for a state-of-the-art spray booth in his restoration shop.

  1. Saw one of those on a car lot in Liberal Kansas n 1971, They were asking $2800 for it. We were looking for a car for me to go to school in. Knew that the insurance would be prohibitive. Do not know what engine it had, probably a 440.
