Any updates?

Do have an update....I was tying to setup to see the car this last weekend, but did not work out.
I also noticed while scanning ads in a another city close by (Portland), a pic of the same cuda down there. It was an ad by a well known charger flipper in that city.
Kinda felt I might be giving up too much to start with, and now with this, just dont get the vibe, if you know what I mean.

So thinking I will do body and paint, and if I decide get a cuda later down the road, I can sell this one or one even some of the other cars, and get a clean car.

Heck not like you can loose with a charger or a cuda, both great cars to drive and have fun with.

While seeing this post, I thought...What type of B-body ? and what type of E- body ?
After the suspense was found, I think a 71 'Cuda will always be worth more than any Charger. 
I put after-market seats in my 71 'Cuda and I fit very well. (I am 6'4) .

Yep that one. Not that I care if a guy flips cars at all, but I figure he is in the deal for profit, I am in it for more of a fair trade.

Several years ago ( it's been almost 20   ) I had a nice, reliable '72 Charger that I drove everywhere.


I really liked that car.


Then along came this little whore of a four speed Challenger that I thought I had to have.


So, I sold my Charger and bought that sexy little yellow slut.

I hated that piss colored bitch.

Too small, rode like a log wagon and everybody would say "Nice Camaro"


And...

It was yellow...

I hate yellow cars.

So... I sold it.

I haven't had a car I enjoyed driving like my old Charger since.

Probably never will...

 I'll take a yellow car over a green thing anyday.

Strip 'em both to bare metal inside and out and start over...

As others have eluded to, the Charger is more appealing to me........ BUT, looking forward and with potential in my eyes (some can see it coming already, "Troy-trade")........

If the '71 you're referring to is a real '71 'Cuda and not a base Barracuda, it has more potential in getting something else you may prefer in the long run, for example a real 440 Charger R/T. Albeit, the 68 383 Charger is nice, it is nonetheless still a base Charger with a 383 option.

Just food for thought............  This rational has served me well having all roads lead to what I have now, the Daytona and Charger 500 (both acquired via trades)............
