Based on the undercarriage, and the incorrect details, I would agree that $125K is insane, but they will likely get it in these crazy times  :alan2cents:

They are asking $135K, starts at 125K.
Both are insane IMO.
Needs so many corrections / updates for that money.
I'm sure someone with deep pockets won't bat an eye at the price.

Was a local car to me, been chasing it for many years, but simply not affordable these days.

I don't know at all, but I assume that's the kind of money Ross got for his impeccably restored, similarly optioned orange 71 Cuda, :dunno:

With this one being a lot older restoration, with a lot of things wrong....the more I think about it, the more I think the asking price is insane, but 71 340 shaker four speed Cudas don't grow on trees, so someone just may step up, you never know. :looney:

For the novice can you give some details on what you look for and what you see as incorrect - I am always trying to learn as much as I can in this area as I always have my eye out for a possible purchase, and it helps keep things in mind when doing my own resto to avoid common pitfalls that seem to be common mistakes when cars come on the market.

I was looking at a very similar car right before I purchased my project - everything the same with the exception of the shaker was owner added - asking price was $110K which I thought was also too high.... :alan2cents:
