Has it already been discussed?
Shaker added, rallye custer wrong year added as well. Good looking car but I think the seller has watched to meany TV auctions. :looney:
(//)Offer him 70,000.00
I don't recall seeing a thread, but that doesn't mean that there's not one floating around.
Most of the stuff I see are minor detailing things:
71 dark center caps -
coded for AM radio and has the upgraded radio but doesn't appear to have the outboard speakers -
71 console with rear ashtray -
No spare tire canister -
CD changer in trunk -
Didn't see a jack set up? -
Wrong dash - appears to be 7K tach
Not sure if that master cylinder is correct?
No repop battery -
Seems like a cool car!
Tons wrong, which would be okay at a $65k ask, maybe even at a $75k ask these days. Not near a $94k ask though.
Pretty optimistic on the asking price, but he could be a motivated seller willing to listen to offers.....I would like to see the underside....
My :alan2cents: , I know it's minor but it's got the wrong fender mounted turn signals.

Parts is parts was the build theme!
I think it was for sale or sold a few years ago. The guy was selling a few cars including this for retirement. Re-stamped motor

Based on "your extensive expertise" and what you charge for "your" level of restoration, what exactly are you seeing that makes a real 70 big block convertible not worth close to that money? :notsure:

I agree with Sheldon on these numbers. We can see lots of little details wrong, added (incorrect) options and the biggest deal breaker is no pictures of the underside. For $94K I would expect to see a fresh restoration underneath with all new mechanicals, no sign of cruddy undercoating or rust, etc...
The condition of the car, and the simple fact it's a base 383 Cuda model with an automatic transmission, holds the value back in my opinion. :alan2cents: Most buyers prefer that H code, U code, V or R even over the 383 car, and a 4 speed is a must for most buyers...
Being optimistic isn't a bad thing, you can't sell your car for $90K if you only ask $75K :dunno: :drinkingbud:
A friend of mine found a 1970 B7/with Black interior 383 Cuda Convertible basket case in a field in Alabama about 8-10 years ago. The fender tag was there but the drive train was gone. The car was a rot box nearly broken in half. He put it on Ebay and it sold for like $14k. There's a chance this could be the same car but I have no record of the Vin so there's no way to know.

Pretty rare colour, so you never know :dunno:
List a car for nearly 100k and no pic of the underside. I don't get that.
