Found this on craigslist. Being I have a '72, I went to go look at it. Car has some good attributes like the rally pack, but has been cut & changed in several areas. Rear quarters have been poorly replaced, I can see the spot welds that they failed to grind smooth, door jambs have shotty weld jobs, trunk and rear deck has been redone to accomodate a large stereo system, door gaps are uneven and awfully tight, and floorpans feel like they're awfully rusty (can feel large lumps all over even through carpet). Engine is clean and so is tranny. Frame looks good, but body would need a lot of work.

My '72 Cutlass S 442 clone in mint restored condition was appraised at $13,500. I don't think one in this condition is worth $5500!!
