Don't see many in the UK. Specifically 71-75 model years. Anyone know what sort of money they go for??

Failing that if you have one post a pic of it!

Or a UK one,
I have my roadrunner clone up for sale since I am moving abroad. Its originally a sport satellite. Its got a 727 and a 440. The engine is from a 69 so its not a smog motor. Its got a edelbrock carb and hedman headers. Its got a B&M floor shifter. Its also fitted with a mini starter. Other than that its "stock" mechanically. It runs great and it does not smoke or leak. Only problem is a vibration from the prop at higher speeds.
The air con did not work when I bought it so I have bypassed the pump pulleys but have not had time to remove the pump itself.
The interior is in good condition for an unrestored car. It got a little rip in the roof lining and the bench seat has some minor cracking but overall she looks great inside.
The car is rust free underneath and I have had it professionally rust proofed by a classic car specialist last winter. The only rust is some some small bubbles on one of the C pillars but they have not grown in the 2 years I had the car. The company that undersealed the car checked the whole car for rust and then cleaned and rustproofed the car underneath and in the doors etc. It only gets driven in the summers, its stored in a dry barn most of the time, but since I live on the coast I felt better knowing it was safer from the sea salt.
The paint looks great from 5 metres away, but its a typical old car US paint job, not up to show car standard. The lights have been properly converted to Uk spec.
I drove 6000 miles with it the last two years and used it to commute to work and back 50 miles a day when the weather was good. It had no problems in all that time. Just regular servicing and a wheel bearing. Its a great cruiser and looks awesome (if I do say so myself...)
I am looking for offers around 9500 pounds for the car. Its got a fresh MOT, I can be reached on 07882754424

Friend of mine had one of these in the full Richard Petty blue colours a few years ago. Probably still around.
