I'm not selling this but was wondering if it was wotrh the 8k and how much money do you think is left to get it done?

For sale is my 1970 Plymouth Barracuda, "Cuda" clone project car, a roller. This is a very early Los Angeles built car, that has its original blue and yellow restored CA license plates, 140 CVJ on current non-op status, VIN # BH23G0E102948, This was a 318 w/ a column shift torqueflight auto trans, power steering, burnt orange metallic with a white interior and a bench seat. The motor and trans are gone, the whole car was bead blasted by Myers sandblasting in East Oakland, and is presently in primer. Installed already is an 8 3/4 rear end with 3.23 gearsets and new Monroe gas shocks. I have many, many parts to go with this project, starting with a reconditioned ralley dash instrument set, a brand new repop Cuda dash pad, brand new repop grill and headlite rings set, a brand new in box organasol rear wing, cuda rear vallance and exhaust tips. R & L side mirrors NIB, Needs Goodmark panels to be supplied and installed. and some rust repair! I have the stock and ralley hoods, with the stock and modified scoops, and and extra pair of hood hinges, buyer would have a choice of a 727 Touqueflight automatic, or a four speed trans. from a '68 Roadrunner, a black set of "440" hockey stick body stripes. Did I mention that there is a brand new repop set of Vintique Mopar ralley wheels with trim rings and center caps? Much time and money have gone into this project acquiring parts, but now I need to sell this. asking 8k. OBO I am sure that I forgot to mention several items.

I talked to the guy and got some more pics there is rott on the firewall and roof that needs to be repaired. It is hard to tell from the pics but the trunk and both quarters have been cut out. It seems like it got sandblasted and then the owner realized it was too much work.

Too much.

Is there a fender tag readout you can get?

[crocha617]

Yes I Agree too much. I'd have to be a real Cuda with no rot for that $.

Keep in mind it's a CA car so it is likely pretty much rust free. And he has alot of parts for it.

It says he talked to the guy and the firewall & roof have rot and the trunk & quarters have been cut out. Sounds like a big project to me.

I'm not selling this but was wondering if it was worth the 8k and how much money do you think is left to get it done?

$2 - 3K max, depending on how much sheet metal is included. By the looks of it, you will need $5 - 7K more for a complete body. Then.........

Two people have seen it.  Did anyone get a fender tag readout?
Could have something special.   Probably not, but worth checking.
