Welcome to our community graham. I too always wanted a 69 Charger but only got as far as a 71 383, still not got one.
But you have a nice alternative instead. There is a nice story behind this car, they did an article in the Oct 2012 issue (258) of Classic American on it.
Duncan Watts (Cannonball) imported this car and can probably tell you some history on it.

I went to school at East Barnet Grammar School at the top of Cat Hill, it's a very small world....and a BIG hill to climb each day
Will you make it to the Classic and Sportscar show at the NEC this weekend?

That's it, I spotted it there in the summer when I was looking for my Merc. I recognised it as I had sold some parts to the previous keeper...

I don't recall seeing the price. Result, you clearly know how to haggle
