1969 Z/28 r/s JL8
 

Trying to get a value for a real 69 JL8 car , real z/28 matching numbers , daytona yellow , yellow houndstooth . real JL8 car , with a gm crossram and fiberglass hood . The car is completley disassembled , has gm quarters , fenders and trunk lid . the rest of the body is very solid . the car is very complete . also have gm door and roof rail weatherstrip and many other gm parts . No paper work , car has been in a private collection fo 30 plus years .

76 B tag?

Sounds like the Dale Chevrolet car!

yes 76 b tag . car was sold new in Wiscosin .

I know the car well. Due to the $4600+ sticker it sat at Dale unsold until 1970. Knocked around here for about 10 years; a good bud ended up with it and did much of the work on it. He wanted to sell, no paperwork. I was able to get ownership history on it back to new and spoke to all the owners. No one had any docs so I passed. Ed C's BIL Ray ended up with it. I gave him the title search docs so those should be with the car. Hard to believe that was 38 years ago.

It's real and was one of the most interesting '69 Z/28s I have seen.

Sounds like a really great car with good history of ownership and some killer options. Just my opinion on a value but it's gotta be in the 80K-85K range disassembled (but complete), and likely north of 130K or more fully assembled. I guess it really depends on how original the car is versus what's been completely restored when it's all back together?

Does it need a frame off with the panels you mentioned needing replaced, or is it partially done with only paint and finishing remaining to be done on the panels, or can a lot of it be saved as original? Need to see current pics to really put a fair value on it but it sounds like a winner. The rare parts such as the GM Crossram and JL8 are worth 35K+ alone.

sheet metal is already on it . just needs a cosmetic restoration .

----It seems to me that a guy I used to know (cant remember his name) from the old days at Classic Motors had this car pre-restoration for about a year and then flipped it. This would have been sometime on either side of 1980. I especially remember the fiberglass hood as I had never heard of that back then!......Bill S

Sent you a PM. More to the story. Contact me if you are serious about it.

Great picture. Is that really a picture of the car being discussed on the lot of Dale Chevrolet or later in it's life? That is quite a rare Z28.

The photo is from a show at WI State Fair Park, maybe 1978 or so. First time I saw it [1979] the original black vinyl top was still on it. Bud Jack removed it when he painted it.

Dale also had an orange JL8 Z/28 with orange houndstooth. Had style trim but not an RS. I briefly owned it late '70s. Everyone around here knew it because it had 8" Corvette wheels painted white. Sold it to a guy from FL; delivered it to his in-laws in the Chicago area.

I owned another orange/orange Z/28 from Dale 1975-1977. Late production [09C] X77 car.

Bears repeating: Dale Chevrolet in Waukesha WI was some hi-performance dealership back in the day. IMHO, right up there with Nickey, Scuncio, Berger. L72 & ZL1 COPOs, JL8 Z/28s, Corvettes, 427 conversions, house race cars. A Dale COPO is on the docket at Mecum FL this month.

I agree,I came across a few Dale Chevrolet dealership items in the past.
I tried to buy the entire lot,but the seller was blown away by how much he was offered to end the auction & sell outright....He did. :(
I think I know who bought them though,and it made sense.

Why no black top in the dealer pic?

Great info, William!

Thanks Bruce!

I always look for you & gang when we visit Pavilions during auction week. I look forward to your photos all year!

Leaving next Wednesday-are you going?

Bill

I think whatever cond the interior is in also counts alot toward the value,how much of it is orig?That is very hard color to match with repo stuff..

I think most of it is original and pretty nice .

Thats what i like to here......is it gonna be forsale?

Possibly

Can I have it ?

Bill mixed up your z28 with the black one...

What are you speaking of about being made up ?

I think Bill is confusing your car with the fake tagged black one in another thread.

That's a fact. Working with that problem myself...Joe

This sounds like a Killer Z28!

That car would be my dream car. I should have pulled the trigger on your Yellow/Yellow z28 Stefano.

My apologies. Yes I did mix up your car with the Black car. Sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused anyone. I am not that type of person, bad rapping someones car. My brother had a 1969 Yellow / Yellow / Houndstooth / Black hat R/S - S/S 396 / 325 TH-400 Factory A/C Coupe back in 1971. A very loaded, rare car, even back in the day. Sold new out of Celozzie / Eddelson in Elmhurst Illinois

Bill

I thought I needed Stefanos car too. I have 2 engines that need homes. Then I decided I needed that like another hole in my head right now! Would be neat cars done

Soon to be for sale

I blows me away that you guys can remember and have pics of specific Camaros from 40 years ago.

Sorry I didn't see this until now. Let me know if you will be at Pavilions on Saturday! I will PM you my number!
