Title: 70 v code cuda for sale by owner
Post by: EBODYBEAR on August 22, 2022, 08:41:37 AM
1970 v code cuda for sale. I bought this car 2 years ago from Manitoba with the intentions to start the restoration myself. Since then, I have enrolled in school and do not have the funds or time in the foreseeable future to finish this car myself. I do not want to sell the car, but I would like to see it go to someone who will restore it and enjoy it.

This car is originally an Ontario car, ordered in southern Ontario. I believe it has not seen the road since around '87. I have many pictures of the car from the mid seventies to early eighties.

The car is a vcode 70 cuda, lemon twist yellow, automatic on the column, black vinyl buckets, 4.10 dana, non shaker car. It does have the dash vin, fender tag, buildsheet and a matching cowl vin.

The bones of the car are very solid, frame rails and floors are really solid (with one patch done by a previous owner on the drivers side floor) as well as the cowl and firewall. It will need trunk, quarters, drop offs, fenders, a door and possibly a rad support. It does not come with an engine, but I do have a 727 that can go with it. I believe it has all of the trim, bumpers, an ebody bench seat, and many various parts that will go with it.

Contact me if interested on here, and I can provide you with my email or phone number. I have many more pictures of the car if interested.

I am located on the Bruce Peninsula, Ontario Canada and would prefer not to ship the car.

Is it an A62 (rallye dash) car by chance? I assume the Dana 60 is gone?

Would an automatic have a Dana 60 standard, or optional ?

Super Track car, he says it was optioned with the 4.10. Ontario is a long haul for me but everything seems to be back east these days.

Oops...missed that in the description...now reading again...wonder if it's a bench car or bucket car  :thinking: I see column auto... :dunno:

The car was pretty basic.

Column shift automatic with 4.10 Dana
Black bucket seats
AM radio
Standard dash
DS sport mirror
Tinted glass (IIRC)
And the usual 'Cuda trim such as road lamps, hood pins, sport hood, mouldings etc.

The Dana is long gone

For those of you curious about the options, I will attach some pictures of the fender tag, vin tag and build sheet below.

It's a solid car - the quarter panel damage was from hitting something, not from rust.  Certain brothers owned it at the time and are the ones who removed the quarters.

With the availability of full, OEM style quarters now, that's probably the way to go.

Trunk was decent IIRC, as well as the extensions.

Damn! Timing is wrong. I just spent 17K on a 71 Barracuda. I could have bought this and only a 7 hour road trip from Michigan.  :headbang:  :bricks:  :pullinghair:

Right on Alan,

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to have the 71 but think i would have preferred the V-code.

I thought the goal was to have one of each. Too hard to choose.  Get another one.

That's a sweet restoration piece - if I read the fender tag correctly, it's also a High Impact color correct? FY1 = Lemon Twist.

I'm looking for a new project for sure.

Yes the goal is to have a 70 as well but i have about a year before I can get into my 401K without penalty so I have to wait. Otherwise I'd be sending him a down payment. and picking up this weekend.

I have just looked through the parts I have for this car, it comes with two dashes, one with gauges. Front and rear bumpers. Most interior panels. Dash Harness. A lot of trim(I'm not too sure whats missing, if any).  Front bench and rear seats. Two steering columns, one floor shift column one column shift. And many various interior parts and pieces. Plus many more smaller parts.

Car currently has an 8 3/4 in it.

how could the owner before 1978 not like FY1 and paint it B7.  :headbang:

I bought the car from the original owner back in 1978. It had new paint on it, and a fresh 440, but not the original block. The original owner said he was tired of the yellow paint and wanted a change. Pic from 1978.

@anlauto (https://forum.e-bodies.org/mlist/anlauto_19) I apologize for the delayed response...

I've had a few interested parties. However, I've had a slight changing of heart for the time being. I may take a couple months to completely make a solid decision that I am happy with. Sorry to everyone for posting preemptively. I will update the post in a few months.
