It's tough to tell without pictures. How is the interior? What are Hemi fenders?   :dunno:

You are probably in the 75K+ range.  My guess.

Weren't Hemi fenders special in that they were rolled or had cutouts for the 15" tires so they wouldn't rub?  :clueless:

Numbers matching hemi cuda with those options should pull 200k, even in the current economy.

Yes, in 1970 an optional F60/15 tire (E60/15 standard) could be ordered on a hemi car thus the hemi fender, more clearence in the wheel well and a rolled under upper lip for the wider tire. Not all hemi cuda's came with this fender only cars ordered with the optional F60/15 tires.

Both my 71 louvered fenders were NOS when I bought them years ago.

FWiW, they were unpainted, factory primer when I bought them.
 
On just the drivers side fender, the lip is rolled in right at the top center inside, highest point.
The rolled area is about 3-4 inches only there at that one spot.

Is it a BS23R car? Is trans matching #? Any rust anywhere? How is paint and body? Original fender tag? Any original paperwork? Any other options? Govier inspected yet?

Govier recently appraised my non-#'s "R" Code fully restored new paint black car for over 300K, but I would certainly take less than that for it.  It has Super Trac Pac, 4.10 Dana with pdb, elasto front bumper, rallye dash, buckets, console, chrome racing mirrors, factory stereo radio and original fender tag and build sheet. No original paperwork. Black is a plus for me, automatic a minus. 

You probably need to get Galen to inspect it if that hasn't been done if you are looking to sell it, as there are some ground down and restamped Hemi blocks around. If it's a real #'s 4 speed red Hemi car, as much as you can make it a #1 condition car as close to the original equipment per the build sheet, the more it will be worth. People who collect these cars are usually looking for one in restored pristine condition.

Thanks for the input folks. Car sold for 200K it was a private sale out of state from where I live. Sold like two hours after we got wind of it via the phone. From what I understand the car was only know to be for sale for approx. 10 hrs. before it was snatched up. Talk about hot cakes  :dunno:.
