WIW 1970 barracuda convertible 318
« on: February 22, 2016 - 10:25:28 PM »
Looking for a ballpark price on this:  1970 barracuda convertible,  restoration done a few years ago, 318 auto, white interior,  vitamin c in color.  Not numbers matching,  no fender tag.  Seems to be in very nice shape, zero rust. 

I know there are a lot of variables and hard to tell without pics but please provide your best estimate


Would match my truck nicely lol

Without pictures & barely any information... I would say $35,000 minimum

Have any pictures of the engine compartment, trunk, interior? If it was restored correctly and the rest looks as good as the outside. I would think $35,000-$42,000. I can't see a 318 car bringing anymore then that.

I'd say about $45k.

Woulda pulled maybe a bit more (like $48k) if it looked more like a 'Cuda (hood, rear valance/tips).

What's the underside look like?

thank you for the reply,  I haven't seen the underside but have been told it's in very nice shape.  No rust what so ever. Full resto done a few years ago

If I buy it I would do different wheels,  rear Cuda valence,  6.4 Hemi swap,  hockey stick stripes and a shaker set up
