Pssssst - BS23 340 4-Speed 71 Cuda
« on: July 03, 2007 - 10:52:47 PM »


Here you go guys, I would have looked at this myself if I didn't come across ole blue.
IMO this car is a steal.....original BS car with good sheet metal & 3 pedals for $30K!!

If you're after a project 71 Cuda and overlook this you should give up looking. :lol:

It's a little rough, but would make for a good driver.  I couldn't spend $30k on a "project"  :faint:

The only people that would spend $30K+ on a project E-Body are those that are and have been looking for a 71 Cuda. They sell for big bucks so buying them is hard but you can't buy a beach resort with apartment money.

I definitely needs work, i.e. the dash pad, etc. but it looks pretty solid to me, and its a manual car, always a plus  :2thumbs:

I always wanted a 71 Cuda with a 340 4-speed. EV2 with billboard stripe just what I want. I'll sell me 70 Cuda and go pick this one up. If it was that easy I would do it as it looks pretty good from the pictures just a little rough around the edges.

Not bad, but for $30k, better fly out and see for yourself.

Front valence tweaked, engine compartment needs help, interior a bit too "custom".

Will take at least $20k to restore her right.  $30k if you can't do anything yourself.  Hmm...now you're talking a $60k 340 car.

Or a 60K Hemi car. ;)

I could run off a list of links with projects half this good asking anywhere from $18K to $35K.
Remember, this is only an asking price. I know for a fact he will move on his prices........better be quick I say.

I can guarantee you that if that were my 71 'Cuda I would trade straight across for your 70 'Cuda in a New York minute.   :burnout: I have an extremely fond spot in my heart for 70 hockey stick 340 'Cudas.  :burnout:

Wow. If I could afford it, I'd be looking at it.

Hmmm...

Wonder if he'd take two 73 Cuda projects and a 73 Challenger driver for it. The Challenger and one Cuda are BS numbers matching 340 4-speed cars.

'71 'Cudas aren't getting any cheaper that's for sure.

I recall five years ago, I saw a complete 383 '71 'Cuda convertible, recently painted FC7, for $39k.

I would've jumped, but I was broke then.


No wonder folks are buying, painting, and flipping these cars!  There's money to be made! :cooldancing:

I know '71's are great.....but if I had an ambivalent preference between 70 and 71's, this is a nice deal on a real '70 BS23H:

Bodywork's all done! I'd put in a date coded 340, and up it with a 6-pak setup and call it a day for less than $40K. Oh, and replace these blasted truck pedals with proper ones!
