thoughts on this 70 cuda

[EBODYBEAR]

Hi everyone, i've been searching for a long while now for a 70 cuda 440 car.. just wanted to know everyones thoughts on this car. cheers! thanks

Thinking out loud:

1970 V-code, 4 speed...Awesome!
Do you know anything about it?
Is it real?
The fender tag looks like a reproduction. Is there a broadcast sheet?
Is the price 60k CAD? That's a decent price in USD.
Looks like a lot of body/paint and interior work is needed. Big $$$.
If it's real and after you check it out thoroughly, place a value on the finished car and estimate the body/paint $. If the numbers work out for you, Go for it!

FAKE tag with ERRORS - any documentation?     I WAS NOT SEEING THINGS CLEARLY

I read "CA car" & thought there was a "N95" to support that claim

non-original tag - any documentation?

Has it  still got its Dana 60 ?  And is it  all there and complete and matching numbers ?  etc etc

British Columbia for 15 or more years and no rust?

EB5  v-code cuda with some nice options just sold on eBay for $75k  running car etc .  If it is for sale at $60k  does it make sense to buy this car ?  FYI  is a nice colour that being said if the new owner could do most of the work him self it would be nice to have . If money is not an issue and one can not afford a hemi car .And this is the next best thing why not . Man I know if I lived in B.C  I would sell my little 340 cuda to buy that .Well I think I would

What part of B.C. is it in? There are members in BC that would likely check the car out for you if needed..... including myself

[RUNCHARGER]

$60k CDN is closer to $44k ish US. Contrary to popular belief B.C. doesn't have salted roads 12 months of the year, there are lots of nice, rust free cars here. This car rings a bell but I can't say as I know anything about it. The fake tag is a shame as the car looks to be a decent project. Probably the shaker was added but who knows.

I'm in the interior of Bc along with other members across the province  who could help. I know sheldon is up around heren now and is a wealth of knowledge. 

I just talked briefly with a guy who has a 70 cuda 440+6 in bc as well. It was a B5 blue ex drag car though.

[EBODYBEAR]

The seller claims that the reproduction tag would match the original one if it still existed... how can that be verified and how can you even tell if it is a true v-code if it doesnt match? Probably a stupid question but im still new to restoring cars... any help appreciated.

@Shoooter  The fifth digit in the VIN would be a V, BS23V0.

Yes I know, it was a bs23v code car. Also  there was a bs23U one aswell.  Both the same guy

[JS29]

@Shoooter  the V code is the 6/barrel U code is a 440/4Barrel. 

[Shoooter]

I've seen the U code cuda I'm talking about and it's not this car the OP enquired about. The V vode one was talking about I haven't see. But it appears to be different.
@JS29 my apology if I referred to them wrong but incant see where I did unless I'm totally missing something which is possible.  I was saying I know of a V code and  U code here in bc . Not sure how many projects are available here in BC so they could be linked

Short of having the original fender tag, a broadcast sheet would be the only other way to verify the fender tag's content.
Attached is copy of the broadcast sheet from my Barracuda.
