I can't say there is much that is Rare there.  Aside from the bsh1b.

The color, ev2, is an awesome color.  And really I have not seen that many hemi orange 71's.
Seems more ev2's in 70.
Just my opinion on that.

The M88 is pretty cool.

Hood tie down pins aren't really that common.

Tinted glass is a good option. 

I don't really care for the vinyl top.

Over all, this is a pretty desirable car.   340 Hemi orange, that is one cool combination.  Good score, especially for that great price.

How are the floors and rails?  I have not seen another thread with pictures yet.?

Tor red / black 'cuda 340 with all tinted glass and power brakes, cool.

M88 is not tape treatment on the 'cuda, it's rear deck panel outline moldings.

I'm not positive it is an M88. Maybe a 68?  This is the only part of the tag that isn't totally clear.  I haven't been able to narrow it down to a different option.

It's M88, because it's part of standard features for the 'cuda.
