No gas crisis in 1971. That happened after the 1973 Yom Kippur war in Israel. As a result of the Arabs getting another lesson in why not to attack Israel, OPEC (lead by our good friends the Saudi's) started the first of many boycotts. (Mods. please note, this is historical fact, not political opinion.)
More than likely this car was sold due to skyrocketing insurance premiums, which if you had a speeding ticket would most definitely lite the fuse.

I confirmed he paid $2100 for it in 71, 4k miles. With what new 71 hemi cuda's were going for back then, I think he got a heck of a deal on a 1 yr old car when you come to think of it. What's neat about the car is it came with a Dana, not too many hemi automatics did.
