You could probably get one that would need little work to get running, but will still need a lot of restoration work.

Agreed, you'd be very, very, hard pushed to find a running driver condition 71 'Cuda. Most project cars in rough shape go for $15-$25K+ Mind you, these are BS cars not BH Barracudas which it sounds like you'd accept (318).

I seen 1 or 2 318 71's on the bay in the last few days.  Great to have money waiting for a special car, but the hp ones are costly.

I emailed that gentleman a few days ago (reissued vin # and the tags are gone) I think the frame rails are shot as well. Really don't have the time and effort to fix it. Would rather have a rust free car or one that needs just a little work.  Would definetly be a great parts car.

Ive restored worse than that. When it comes to 71 cudas there is almost no such thing as a parts car they are ALL being restored. If you want a rust free car to start with you are looking at a MINIMUM of 25k and that car will still need restoration.
