Not sure I like it.  It's cool, but not my thing. I am sure I could get something else more my style for 100K. Not that I would spend that much if I had it. I am not up on costs, but 100K for a 383 car with a 440? Everyone is trying to recoup what they put in, but dudes, used is used and the price should reflect that. Desirability/demand is one thing, but dumping a ton of money into a car and expecting to recoup that is insane. I wouldn't pay top dollar for someone elses eexpensive paint and shiny parts. I think you would take a loss on those. But then I am an idiot on this stuff.

   I'd drive it! Wouldn't pay 100K for it but it's a cool car.
It does say " or best offer"

Cool car

IMO one of the coolest cars ever, I love the look! If I had the money it would be in my garage and I would be driving it. It does need some clean up under the hood and engine bay but other wise I`d leave it as is.

Looks like someone got themselves a cool Christmas present, it sold today!
The paint and body on the car look great.  The undercoating on the bottom of the hood and inner fenders is pretty awful.  As long as the new owner keeps the hood down at shows all is good!

I wish we knew what it sold for.

Inspired by Mopar-modified "street machines," Joshua Perahia, of the metal band "Joshua" bought this 1970 Plymouth 'Cuda in 1971 and set out to transform it into the high-performance custom "Highway Star."  Within four years, Perahia swapped the 'Cuda's original 383-cubic-inch engine with a 440-cubic-inch unit and equipped it with aftermarket parts from some of the most highly regarded suppliers at the time, including an Offenhauser manifold, Holley carburetor, Isky camshaft, Mallory ignition, Hooker headers, and a B&M automatic transmission.  Highway Star's exterior underwent a similarly transformative treatment, with custom gold paintwork, flared fenders, and a custom hood scoop and grille.  In addition to being used as Perahia's daily driver around Los Angeles, Highway Star received numerous wins at car shows throughout the mid-1970s and was featured on the covers of Car Craft and Street Machine magazines in 1976.

Fairly easily fixed but getting that undercoating off is a very messy job. Undercoating does NOT belong in the engine bay, floors or trunk, ONLY underneath please!
