another sweet Mopar deal missed in DFW
« on: November 11, 2005 - 06:18:48 PM »
I just saw this on a local DFW Mopar website. The car sold within a week - I can't believe this one got past me. Sublime 70 Cuda vert for $25K. It sure looks like it would have been a good deal. The ad read

25k is bloody good for a '70 BCuda 'vert.

That what I was thinking. He did have it priced right for a 318 car but the original engine isnt stated (we know it wasnt a 360). Being a 70 vert, that car could be cloned to be worth 2X-3X than that.

I think with the market the way it is most vert owners realize that potential value is a great lever in maximizing their selling price. I wouldnt have been surprised to see that car selling on Ebay for $35k - $45k. I am a still fresh on the mopar scene, but I have never seen a vert that "looked" that good with such a low price tag.   

Rustbucket? Maybe. Judging from the pics though it was one clean rustbucket!

Mike - I saw the ad on the CMPT website and thought it was a great deal!  I thought about getting it for a future Hemi clone project, but decided I did not need another project at this time.

I thought that it would be a good deal, as long as it was solid underneath with no major issues.

As a side comment, man I hate those exhaust pipes, reminds me of wheelbarrow handles!   LOL
