This car is a clone. He has been trying to sell it on Craigslist for a while now. He bought it a few months ago off of Craigslist in Oregon for 6,500. At first his posts said "clone", now he appears to be billing it as the real deal. I don't know about the appraisal, but dart4forte is correct in what he said about the price for a '71 340 transplant.
