Interesting car.  Looks similar to my V code except mine doesn't have the formal roof or wide hood chrome package.
What's with the seats?  Looks like they've been reupholstered in some sort of cloth covers.  :barf: Lots needed to get the interior and engine compartment back to stock!
I can't get any interest in my turn key needs nothing to be ready to show V code trying to get in the 70s for it, so 79K buy it now seems very optimistic.  I'd think low to mid 50s and even that will take a while to find a buyer.

 :iagree:  yours was the first car I thought of when I opened this thread... ;)

$79K is a VERY optimistic number....I see mid-high $40's, low $50's maybe as well.

I'm interested in your car..... I can't afford it but I'm interested!   :rofl:   :pokeeye:

You aren't the only one!  Lots of people have told me they'd buy it, if they had the money!
I'd be interested in keeping it indefinitely myself, if I had a 4 car garage instead of a 3.  :D

Wow!  That is a really cool car!  I love the whole combo. I agree though for that price the engine bay and interior need to be up to speed.   

The engine bay is the larger issue. Spray bomb black and originality are all gone. I hope he has the parts to get it back to where it was but even so I can't see this car topping the 50's.

Real nice ride though!  4 speed 340 in RT/SE trim in my favorite color with performance axle package!  Very cool!

It's okay. I'll take a six pack please. Too much aftermarket stuff on it too.

This car is for sale on forebodiesonly along with some very nice stablemates that are also for sale.
If I remember correctly this car was purchased by the grandfather of the current owner.

That's a good question :huh:

I would bet that due to the car having rocker moldings the quarter scoops get deleted.

Do you mean body side moldings ? I've never heard of rocker moldings deleting the side scoops ? Interesting :thinking:

No

Rocker panel molding never deleted 1/4 scoops. Nothing deleted 1/4 scoops on a 71 R/T. It would be like deleting fender gills on a 71 Cuda... didn't happen.

My 71 has rocker panel and it original scoops. But lots of others.
