New to Mopar and looking for some guidance on a Cuda find

[dutch]

I am happy I built mine. It tastes better...

i am assuming that everyone else saw this too and forgot to mention it, since the car was a original 318 car it is a barracuda, not a cuda , plus it says that on the tail panel so that drops the price too.. you are better off buying a driver and it would be cheaper... but whats the fun in that!! theres lots of cars out there

Way too big of a project for me and with the cost of Mopar parts & labor I fully expect it will be a money pit you will never recover from especially once you decide to sell and find few buyers.  As noted, buy the best condition vehicle/driver you can afford and just work on sections to get it to the level you desire.

Yea bro 15-20k will get you a nice driver that you can enjoy while you tinker with upgrades. Just be sure to spend your money wisely because you don't want to buy a "pig with lipstick". Those get really expensive!

I would save your money and buy a 70 cuda project.If it was a true 74 cuda I would consider it.Being a Barracuda I would pass.You would  have 20k just in metal,body and paint.I spent 60k on my car and I did 80 percent of the work myself.

I agree with buying a good driver unless it is your dream car.  For that amount you can find a really nice driver, like others have said to tinker with as money and time allows.
