Dodge Challenger Auction For WTAE's Project Bundle-Up Ends

PITTSBURGH -- A chill in the air means it's time for WTAE Channel 4's Project Bundle-Up.

Your Pittsburgh area Dodge dealers donated a 2008 limited-edition Dodge Challenger SRT 8 Demo for a special auction throughout November. The auction ended at noon on Monday.

In its 22-year history, WTAE-TV Channel 4's Project Bundle-Up has raised $9.6 million for The Salvation Army of Western Pennsylvania to help provide new, warm winter outerwear for more than 200,000 needy children and senior citizens throughout western Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio and northern West Virginia. Click here for more Project Bundle-Up information.

As part of the national introduction of the Dodge Challenger this year, this street-legal monster -- number 780 of 6,400 in production -- will go to the highest bidder.

eBay will notify you and Project Bundle-Up via e-mail that you are the winner. Payment instructions will be included in the e-mail. Once your payment is verified, the Salvation Army and Pittsburgh Area Dodge Dealers will arrange for the transfer of title and arrangements on how to pick up the car by appointment only.

We will only accept a cashier's check (certified from U.S. or Canadian Bank) or money order, personal check (once cleared), or cash required within seven days of listing close.

All sales on the Project Bundle-Up auction are final. The buyer is responsible for vehicle pickup and shipping.

The car will be sold as is and cannot be returned to the donor for cash or an exchange.

Remember, you'll receive a confirmation email from ebay to let you know that you have won the bidding.

Technically, the car is a used vehicle as it has 993 miles on it, mostly from delivery and showcasing the car for advertising purposes. This vehicle has not been smoked in and has no dents, dings or mechanical problems. It is sold as is. An oil and filter change has been performed.

The winner of this car will be responsible for arrangements to pick-up this vehicle once full payment is confirmed. The winner will be invited to an "event" publicizing the sign over of the vehicle as it was donated to Project Bundle-Up via WTAE-TV from The Pittsburgh Area Dodge Dealers (PDAA). Communication between Project Bundle-Up Director and Winner will take place upon close of the auction.
