Good luck with trade be like me get one of each body a, b, c, d, e, im looking for c and d. That car would be a walk in the park for you they just about make the whole car in parts.
 
Tasty project right there!
 
70 Barracuda is a highly desirable car and worth a fair bit of money, what is sitting there is worth about $2500 minimum all day long, oh yeah definitely worth saving.
 
Surprised you can even find one's in that kind of shape anymore. Either they're total, total basket cases or seven figures.
 
This one sat outside on blocks behind a Barn.........

The more I think about it, the less I know I can take on this one, I just don't have the space, If I had a garage where I could rotisserie it............but I don't.........nuts

I guess I'll just spin the tires and find out the gear ratio........if it's better than Angel I'll pull it and the car will go up forsale again.....
 
Many moons ago I picked up a 73 Challenger...318/3 speed manual...no motor and tranny, and in rough shape. Bought it mainly for the 4 speed stuff...got it for about $2-300? Anyway got it home and spun the rear 8 3/4...had a suregrip!! Checked the ratio...3.91...double score!! Think I got about $500 just for the gears....the rest was gravy.

I think that cuda is a bit rough...but I guess it's a rebuildable unit if it has a title and regi.

Ownership, Clear title and Registration that is F'ed up but matches the car, they have it listed as a '71 but the vin matches the one on the car?
 
My oldest daughter (12) told me tonight that she wants me to keep them all. I told her I will but don't make any plans to go to college.....
