1970 AAR Cuda

dhh · May 24, 2021, 09:43:11 AM

1970 AAR Cuda in Lemon-twist. Non numbers-matching but correct TA stamped 340 six-barrel (Rebuilt with 500 miles since). Non numbers-matching 727 auto trans.

Looks like a good restoration. Guy says he would let it go for 67k. Thoughts?

Please see photos and decoded tag attached. (will need multiple posts)

$67K for a complete nice looking, running driving AAR is likely worth it...

I see some incorrect details, like the wrong seats in the car (with the right covers)

Wrong jack hook and wrong spare tire...Still worth $67K in my opinion...

I think so too, just wanted to get a sanity check from the forum members

Wrong console as well

Is it difficult to source correct versions of these parts?

No, not all all. Just about everything is available in reproduction that you would need, except maybe the seat hinge covers

but again, I don't think any of these little details take away from the asking price of $67K, maybe if they were asking $90K

I totally agree: Great looking car for the price. If it was $90k I would criticize a few things but for $67k it looks pretty good, as long as the paint and body are as nice as they look in the photos. Things like a correct spare etc. can be sourced over the years to bring it up as you enjoy the heck out of driving it.
AAR's supposed to have 11 inch drums on the rear?

Good catch on the rear brakes Sheldon....

Yup AAR's got 11" rears, disc up front....That's one of those things that make you wonder exactly how much work was done to a car and why did the rear end not have the correct brakes

FYI, BS23J0B282205 has been sold in 2019 without engine:

Nothing wrong with the $67k. Good looking AAR for the price.

Interesting way to get your motor back.
