74 Cuda
« on: May 09, 2007 - 08:59:11 PM »
I am looking at trading one of my Race Motors for this car.  I am being perfectly honest by saying that I will be putting this car up for sale, since I needed the money out of the motor and thought it would be easier to sell an E-Body vs. Race Motor.  I would appreciate any input as to value of this car prior to making the trade.

1974 Cuda Roller, VIN, Title, Maybe a Fender Tag, Fiberglass Front End, Nice Grill & Lower Grill, Car has Cage, Car has not been cut up with the exception of the inner fenders being removed.

If we never drown we'll never know how well it tastes....So tell me how it tastes and I'll know just how well you drowned.

IMO, a cuda/challenger that'a been chopped up, even a little, usually steers people away.  90% of this market is people who are looking for a dream car to build up or work on.  If it's going to be too much work, they usually pass.  Ebay is a good example of this......tons of cars with cages/mini-tubbed, etc, but no one wants them.  Just my  :2cents:

What's the race motor that you have?  Specs?

I've got a 440 on a stand in my garage waiting to be built. If I had the space and money I'd snag it up and make myself a weekend racer for the track. That'd be sweet. One show Cuda and one Race Cuda.

Wow, motor sounds nice.  I wouldn't trade that motor for that car, IMO.  I picked up my car for only a couple k more than that and it's in REALLY nice shape compared to that thing; full interior, motor runs strong, no rust in the rails,trunk, etc.  Minor body rust spots that can easily be fixed is all it has.  I would try selling it to the market where it belongs, in the racing world.  Are there any classifieds online for racing cars/motors?  Not too sure there, but I would not trade that motor for that car, sorry, just my  :2cents: again.
