Wow. Seems like a pretty good deal. Wish I had the money for it..

'Cuda Hunter · « **Reply #2 on:** February 27, 2008 - 06:54:50 PM »

Thanks,
I feel it is a smoking deal. Havn't seen one for that price aside from a crushed one that was on ebay. I think it went for like 7000 and the guy wouldn't give up the fender tag or t/a tag. And I mean crushed. Not rebuildable even. This car here could be a runner in a few weeks. I considered doing a rat rod and leaving the rust like it is. I have a 70 barracuda that all the parts could just go right on the aar.

Man, it's already got a bid on it...good luck. Hope you are doing well Josh. Not a day goes by I think about how you are doing

Thanks Al, I appreciate the thoughts. Life will get better.
Hopefully the car sales for more than what I want for it. That is one nice thing about ebay, sometimes. I got like 30 watchers already. 5 questions also. I can tell this car is going to require alot of questions answered.
thanks

Well I bid on it (first bidder) and have been out bid already

Wish you luck friend...

Good luck, you wont need it. The way its going now, someone's gonna hit the BIN.

Looks like bidding has reached the reserve. The buy it now has disappeared. 9 days left and hopefully it will at least reach the buy it now price of 7g's. That would help out tremendously. I just hate selling the one car that has more than personal value. Hard to find an AAR.

Not interested in the car, but wanted to ask a general question.
No title, no bill of sale, no data plate, no cowl number, no radiator support number, but you do have a dash with a VIN on it. Are there other numbers on the car to match up to the VIN so this car can be considered restored and have value? It seems like it would be hard to restore this car to have any value as an AAR. You are obviously a good CC member, but who knows the history of an old car dragged out of a field? Am I missing something here? Not trying to create drama here, so if the thread heads that way I'll delete this post. Just wondering where the value is in a car like that. Repaired and restored would it be a $30K, $40K, $50K car?

'Cuda Hunter · « **Reply #10 on:** February 28, 2008 - 01:16:06 AM »

Don't really know. I really havn't offered it for sale because of those reasons. Point is there is a vin tag on the car. That's what it takes to get a title and have the car registered. Take it as it is. I can't offer anything more than that. I got what I got with the car and that is all that I can offer. I know the difficulty in numbers of the car. Let's just say that if you put all the parts on the car than it is really only worth what a barracuda is worth. I am not trying to sale a 50,000.00 car. I have another car that has the same problems. When it runs and moves it will be worth what a running and moving car is worth. I can't really vouch for anything but what I have stated. If anyone is uncomfortable with the problems this car has then they can simply not purchase it. I am just selling a piece of metal that I got out of a field. If I was really concerned about the car I would not have purchased it. Car is a car. Again I am not advertising this as a car worth lots of money. It is a project and needs everything. Literally everything.
No drama at all. This is the type of response that I have gotten from many people through the years of having the car around. I welcome your observations and opinions.
Regardless, the car has to be sold as I am liquidating all of my cars, or at least most of them. I am not going to crush the car because it doesn't have all the numbers. If someone has a problem with the numbers thing than they can buy it to cut the roof and the quarters off of it and put them on another car. I don't really care what happens to it aside from I would hate to see yet another ebody get cut up and wasted. What can I really do ?

gkring · « **Reply #11 on:** February 28, 2008 - 01:29:04 AM »

Understood and sounds fair.
Years ago (early 90's) I had a 69 RT charger that came with a parts car-no title.
Took what I needed and left the car in the street and called one of the guys in the local paper who hauls away cars no questions asked.
Nowadays that would be considered insane. Hope you can get some good money for it and wheoever buys it does the right thing and restores it.

'Cuda Hunter · « **Reply #12 on:** February 28, 2008 - 08:20:08 AM »

Agreed, thanks for the words.

'Cuda Hunter · « **Reply #13 on:** March 01, 2008 - 04:07:10 PM »

Come on, nobody has any other words to say about this? I expected so much more bad feedback because of the numbers thing. Are you all just being nice to me.
I really purchased it to cut the roof off and the rear quarters for a car that I had before. After I picked it up I found out it was an AAR from the vin. That's when I got all the stories I could about the car.

I think the numbers thing was discussed well by you and gkring.
