already over 30k

[DetMatt1]

Agreed.

Wow, I would inspect that car thoroughly before bidding.. I mean already at 35k and it looks rusty as h... and needs a LOT of work!

 

[MoparWoodhead69]

But the ad says it's worth $125k. 35k sounds like a bargain. I mean, all it needs is paint.
It's only 200 miles from me, and I was thinking about looking it over. But when it hit 30k, my hope went out the window. Unless it also comes with the car pictured in the second to last picture, I'll have to pass. The ad still has 6 days to go.

All of the rules and common sense seem to go out the window with 71 Cuda Convertibles.

 

[DetMatt1]

I realize that there were no JS27 cars in ‘71 but I’d be curious to hear what your thoughts are on similarly equipped ‘71 E body convertible Dodges compared to the Plymouth’s.

That is an interesting Cuda vert and a rare one at that, original bronze metallic is a nice color.
BUT
Looks very rusty, inner fenders, trunk floor, driver's floor and other areas. Seller states the fenders are shot.
Noticed it had a 70 Challenger burnt orange rear seat. (good thing the rear, upper frames are the same on convertibles) for re-upholstery purposes
Also looks like it had a wing spoiler (factory maybe?)
Any way, that is a lot of money for a car that will need that amount of metal and mechanical work. Bid up to 36.1k at this point.
Just my thoughts.

I do like the burnt orange, but the challengers in gunmetal gray look great.

Here's a nice one too.

Love that leather burnt orange interior- Pretty rare!

 

[fk5aar]

Thanks, the fronts are awesome condition but mice got in the rears so I have removed them might have to get new frames also. These are almost mint

When I redid my 70 Challenger convertible's burnt orange interior, my wife requested front leather because she remembered them from the 70 SE we had 40 years ago. So I gladly complied, even though not original to the conv. Sourced from Legendary. Sorry for topic diversion. Hope you make your sale.

 

[DetMatt1]

Gorgeous!

Wow, that interior looks stunning in that color with the leather inserts!
Nice convertible w power windows and a rim blow steering wheel.
Where did you get the interior panels? Are they originals or respray? Really exceptional condition.
