Just an fyi there is currently an aar cuda on ebay vin BS23J0B297326 that does not look quite right.  To all potential buyers make sure you examine the car carefully before purchase. It is supposed to be a bucket seat console car but is missing console brackets and holes in the floor for linkages. It is also missing torque boxes, driver side exhaust hanger, wrong emergency brake brackets, etc.

Looks like it's had a ton of metal work, so it's hard to tell what they started with. They may have just replaced the majority of the shell... :dunno:

This car seemed familiar, so I looked at a few posts, from last year. It looks to belong to member SassyAAR. His project must have lost momentum.

I bet the reserve is 35 to 40k.There is a couple hundred hours in metal work that someone did.

 :iagree:  This appears to be originally a column shift car which explains the lack of console brackets? Also has had a few different people work on it but appears to be an AAR. Wish I could buy this one and finish it!

Clearly has C16 (console) on the original looking fender tag :dunno:

The floor was replaced and I don't thing they come with the console brackets, you need to put them on.

Update from his ad;

On Jan-01-21 at 14:05:33 PST, seller added the following information:
In response to a few questions: I bought the vehicle as a race car project to go with the Mopar block I already had in the state it is in from the previous owner who had begun the rebuild process. From what I can tell the parts that appear sourced from a donor Cuda are both rear and front driver's side frame rails, driver's side door frame, and header panel (based on residual paint colors etc. before blasting). Parts that were replaced with new AMD/Dynacorn etc. sheet metal: fenders, inner fenders, driver side door skin, quarters, tail panel, trunk, outer rear wheel housings, and floorpan. I am selling this as-is as a project car that was someone else's previous project that I have done my best to detail based on investigation since I do not know the prior history of the vehicle. I just can no longer finish it myself.
