Did you see Zeder's post about a 67 Z28 motor?

Jeff: Roger contacted me, but it is not his motor [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I have a car in mind for the motor and a friend who has "first dibs" if I don't get the car, otherwise Roger can have a shot at it if he wants. I should know my situation in a week or two. Now I just have to decide if I want to sell my L78 to get a second Z. I can't believe that 9 '67 z's have become available in the last 2 months after searching for a year with hardly a nible! I guess it's a good problem to have [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

So you might be selling the L78? Let me know if you do.

Re: 67 z28 engine, or block
 

Zedder, what's the range of asking prices for a 67Z nowadays?

Denis,

Two most expensive are $100K - neither have sold to the best of my knowledge (one owner called me again on Saturday - Motown advertised the other on this site so maybe he can confirm this). Number 1 cars are $50-$60K range it seems, anything drivable is $30K plus, projects are all over the place but usually $15K or better. I'll give you a better idea once I see if any of these cars change hands. To be honest, most who contact me are "thinking about selling" and are asking me what the prices are. I think a number of longer-term owners are testing the waters given the huge price increases in Muscle cars during the past year or so.

Same subject, different year...

What would a driveable early '70s Z be worth? Auto, interior not too bad, not sure if engine is original, looks like originally blue, and at first glance appears pretty solid. They've been driving it, but they swapped carbs (to a Q-jet!) using an adapter, it had anti-freeze puddled on the intake, and they said the brakes weren't working quite right. I talked to the guys wife and she said the orignal carb wouldn't work, so they swapped on the Q-jet, but with the adapter it makes it sit too tall, so they took off the air cleaner assembly! Needs LOTS of TLC, but it's not too bad for this area. Any tips what to look for, like trouble areas, or verification?

The Norwood cars will have the "Z28" or "28" on the trim tag. On the 72 and later, the VIN will tell you which engine and that will also determine a Z28. Go to MadMike's site Second Gen Camaro info to learn all the details on the 2nd gen Z28's. Ond of the weak spots on those cars is the rear frame rails tend to rust out completely. The rockers also rust pretty good.

Seems like you can (or could, last time I checked) find a decent restored 1970 Z28 for $20-23K. Add another $10K for a L78.

Well, one part I do recall is seeing "Z28" on the tag. Thanks for the info!
