Worth is always what a person will pay and how bad the sell wants to unload. The interior in a 71 will be vinyl from the factory and not leather. A low mileage 71 Cutlass with a solid body, decent paint, trim, bumpers, and mechanicals could bring 5 G's maybe more if close to mint......Just my opinion.

What body style is it, S or Supreme? If the car is as nice as you describe and those are original miles, it could get up to 8 or 9 grand out here on the west coast. Would like to see pix when you get the car! Chumley
