A voice from the past

It’s been a couple of years since I contacted the MOPAR Cuda Challenger community a my last posting was from the West Coast of the US.
I was working for the BIG aeroplane company in Everett and as they are out sourcing there engineering work I lost my contract and had to take salvage back in the UK with JLR.
I had planned on bringing my 72 Challenger over with me but before leaving I had a cash offer that at the time I didn’t think I could turn it down and ending up selling it, that was January of last year.
We have just spent a month on the West Coast and on seeing a few of my MOPAR friends over there I made an offer on a 1967 Barracuda not matching numbers but very straight body little to no rust on the panels but needs foot wells and paint, it also has a nice 340ci.
If I go through with the deal I will get the motor freshened up, all the exterior trim is present, but removed, auto tyranny, power steering, disk brakes no power booster.
I put a pile of bucks into my E body and liked it but can't find a good deal on another one.... If the deal goes thru what sort of value have these early Cuda's got in the UK?
Cheers for now,
Xbrit
