What's this Barracuda worth???

Teeth & Tires said

Looking for another Cuda is out of the question. I'm not on a quest but, rather, have had this opportunity presented and wish to go about it correctly.

I have been under the car and, while filthy, it is still solid as is the trunk floor.

I am pretty sure that motor has not been rebuilt. The present owner (the grandson) claims he drove it to work 2-3 times about 2 1/2 years ago but then simply would not start. Jumper cables didn't make it happen, either. I'm thinking fuel or spark.

At present, simply trying to gather as many opinions as possible prior to the weekend which would be the next time I can meet with him.

Rust free is a big plus becasuse rust repair is very costly, The vinyl top is a cool option. Shifter on the column would be a non-console car, replaced quarter panel that was reworked poorly, not running all would take away from the value of the car. The big hit would be the quarter panel to me because for it to bring good money it would need to be fixed so that would mean a full repaint. You mention Torch Red as the paint color but there was no Torch Red from the factory on a 1969 Barracuda. There is a paint code R6 and that is called Scorch Red or a code R4 Barracuda Orange as far as the red tones go for this car. I have included that paint chip sample for you. (Note: not every color shown may be a Barracuda color) You need to run all the codes on this car if you want to try to ever recover your investment.
