For Sale 70 RT U Code FJ5 Thoughts

[superdave]

  I see this for $38,000 and then the '71 'Cuda on ebay for $25,000 (probably needing close to $10k in AMD metal not to mention paint) and this looks like a deal! But I guess if you do the work you KNOW what's under the paint. I wish I had that decision to make, okay maybe not. Looks like a pretty tough market right now but there are probably deals out there. Diligence/patience pays off in the end.

You can't compare a 1970 Challenger to a 71 Cuda.....

Hey, that's awesome Sometimes it's better to be looking at it...then looking for it

I seen the A/C as a negative, not because it was there but because it isn't there. If the A/C was all there (or not optioned with it for that matter) and operable it would go a long way to making his asking price in reason. Nothing says pile of junk more than an A/C car without the A/C, it really makes you look to see what else is missing and on this car there are a lot of things missing. I compare this one to the Red U-code just purchased by a fellow on Moparts, similiar price but the Red car had a whole lot more going for it IMO.

GOOD !.....That leaves more 71 Cudas for me

or any Cuda....

Congrats on the purchase, I think the overseas deal was just a sales tactic. I sold one overseas and it's a minimum of 5k to get it shipped with always factors into the selling price.

When we rebuilt the engine in my car we didn't put the A/C back in because it wasn't working and I didn't want to pay to get it working. It doesn't make the rest of my car junk and nothing else is missing.

Could have been a tactic, but I sold my prior car a u Code RT project to a guy from Sweden...Michigan based and $ from Sweden

Both parties are happy..While I may not have stole it overall the bones are good..

Good bones are half the battle in these cars these days.  Good color, nice options and a solid car.  You should be pretty excited!

Good for you, enjoy it
