E-Body Cuda project wanted
« on: September 07, 2010 - 05:24:14 PM »
Hi

I'm looking for something that can be my very own frame-off restomod project.
Everything from completely unrestored carcass to abandoned project is interesting.
Preferably something that can be pushed on a trailer. Without engine/transmission is perfectly fine.
Please send offers to boogeyman@too****ingfast.com (this link will probably not work due to a filter for indecent language, but it's my actual emailaddress)  :bigsmile:.

Thx

Hi again

I actually found a '72 cuda 440 with auto transmission. The VIN is BH23G2B462084.
It seems to be in fairly good shape. Question is, how much should I spend on it?
The seller asks for $ 9.000. Would you consider it to be worth that much according to the pics?

It looks pretty good from the pics. How are the floors, trunk, cowl area, etc.?

It doesn't look bad. Is it running? I would definitely crawl underneath and check the frame rails too.

Just FYI...looking at the vin it is a barracuda and not a 'cuda. Barracuda's are generally less money than 'cuda's

It does have the black out out tail panel which is easy to do but why does it have the chrome trim around it?
