I have owned corvettes ( 14 of them---NOT at one time ) since 1970 till now. I decided that I need a change and the next best car for me would be a Cuda or Challenger. I am 62 yrs young and live in NJ. I want to buy a number matching one thats a # 2 condition. I dont want a restored one but one that can turn heads and be RUST Free and in excellent working condition. I would need A/C and Auto. in it. I know how bad the market is because I am in the process of selling my vette and the prices have come down so much.( No one has money to spend on the Toy ). I hope to find one soon and hope I dont have to travel far to get one. I would also like a qualified mechanic check it out for Rust and the condition. Thank you all for your kind words. Oh yes, the years I would be considering would be 1971-1974. These models have a better chance of having what I am looking for and that includes the PRICE.  Thanks, rollsman

Welcome aboard and good luck on the search. A little FYI, 71 cudas are going to be the most expensive and probably the hardest to find. Also should be noted that a number 2 condition car by definition is a show car that only loses to a concourse (#1 condition car) at shows.
