Barracuda Formula S Experts Opinions Needed

It does have a tach and he said all the guages were sent off to be repaired and recalibrated. The motor sounded strong and the tti exhaust was nice. He preferred orange over red paint for the motor which isn't a big deal. Yes there are several minor things and I agree about having the body inspected. What do you think about the 73 dart disc brake/control arms upgrade?

Not the end of the world. The car was an original front drum car. Make sure the rear end was switched to large bolt pattern too. Sometimes people run both lug patterns still.

It's a nice driver car. But notchbacks do not bring the money of fastbacks. Rare or not. IMHO, 68/69 GTS and 69 Swinger 340 will bring more money with comparable options/condition.

I think your low to mid teens is on the right track. I'm thinking $11K-13K. All depends on checking for bondo thickness and repairs. Look at spare tire well, bottom of rear quarters where the drain plug is, rear rocker panel where drain get plugged and rust from inside out (especially passenger side).

Just remember, you will be in the same selling situation when you try to sell your 68 340-S notchback automatic. But even tougher since it's a automatic.
