Wow!  Amber sherwood metallic with an f7 green interior.  V6X is a billboard right in 71 right? 
He says the gf3 is medium green poly but my book says amber sherwood metallic.

Which is it?   The floor appears to be medium green.

there were only 2 metallic greens for a 1971 e-body  -  GF3 & GF7  -   they go by a number of names (some correct & some incorrect)

officially at Plymouth they are:
GF3 = amber Sherwood metallic
GF7 = Sherwood green metallic

& yes, V6X = black billboard stripes

& the higher the number, the darker the shade of the color is

EF8 (1969-'70)  is darker than GF7 (1971)
&
GF3 (1971) is lighter than FF4 (1970)

If you could buy it for $500 it would be a neat car to restore....but it will likely go for closer to $10K :crying:

It sure needs everything.  What is the car worth after replacing just about every piece of metal you can see in the pics?

Floors look really bad.  drivers quarter has worms.  How bad is the firewall going to be from hitting a parked car? 
Wonder if it tweeked the roof.  Since it's sitting on the broken K member it has to be twisting the drivers inner fender as well as the fender itself.  That thing is rough.

to speak in my australian voice,    Yah, nah,  nah. 

The green just doesn't have a high resale value no matter what the car is.

It will never be matching #'s anyway. People foam over 71, 340 Cudas. I say paint it FC7, add a shaker, 4 speed and be happy.  Leave the stock tag on the fender though please.
