RT - Tough question, 71's are desirable, assumption is all the part and pieces are there? is there a data tag, build sheet? is it manual or 4 speed, small or big block.

Just for reference, I bought what I would call a core 70 small block 4 speed car needing full restoration. Painted it and have the engine and transmission. It has a data plate, and I am going with a 451/TKO600. I am still working on it now, but I wouldn't let it go for less the $25, others may come back and say different. 70's and 71's are the desired year. And I would assume a lot is for what others are looking for? Unfortunately or fortunately these cars are crazy priced, depends which side of the deal you are on.

If the body is solid I would say around $10,000. After sitting for 10 years the brakes, etc. all need gone through again. Post some pics.

if the paint job is 10 years old and still looks good no blisters bubbles or peeling, than its a safe bet the body is in good shape. but after setting that long i would want to take the engine and transmission apart and check all that out. rebuild the complet brake system and so on. if you can get it for 10,000 i would think that is a good buy. good luck!

Need pics. Need to see what is stamped on the engine block where the VIN would go. Without any pics it is a guessing game. Non original motor, no fender tag, and no buildsheet really hurt a cars value. An identical Cuda with all of these will be worth a lot more than one without these.

71 Cuda

I'm thinking like $20k max with out pictures. It could be worth $25k but with no fender tag or build sheet it is tough. We need pictures. Are you selling or buying?

No tag or sheet is just the kinda cars I like to buy. They make great racecars, restomods, etc. Of course, the price has to be in line.
