Cuda Question.

[Mark_C]

Heres a website:

According to the for sale page on this site your looking at the mid 30's to mid 40's for a numbers matching AAR cuda, and about 10K for junk.

Sad to say I sold mine in 83 for 3000, lemon twist Yellow (painted white by me) 727, 3.90 (original) and 4.56 quick change rear gears. It now resides somewhere NW of Augusta Maine.

Thanks guys. This one is unrestored except for paint which is 2 years old. He has no paper work. Bought the car locally from a dealer in Yonkers, NY 27 years ago. 2 owner, original motor but not trans. He is asking $35,000. What do you guys think? Is there much room to flip the car to break even? Make profit?

What is the VIN? The fifth digit must be a "J" for it to be an AAR Cuda. "J" was the engine code for the 340 Six Barrel engine. Do you have the fender tag codes?. The chassis VIN on top of the cowl area and the back of the radiator support and under the trunk weatherstrip must match the VIN and data tag info. Be careful with E-body cars (Cudas and Challengers) because the VIN plate is attached to the dashpad itself, which is easily swapped from car to car. It was not affixed to the car itself. You would be hard pressed to be able to flip a $35K AAR for a quick profit. That is about the current going rate unless it is a 100 point car, in which case the seller is probably way upside down in the car. The lack of a broadcast sheet or any paperwork reduces the value but not as much as, say a GM product because MOPARS have their engine codes in the VINS. This car's VIN should read something like BS23J0B100000, -NJSteve
