Default Re: 1969 Z28 eBay block pic

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: x77-69z28</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I'm not too fond of the vin stamp on the block either! Seems like the numbers are too spread out. Not at all like the m-22 stamp. I remember this car and the lawsuit. Dragged on for years. I don't know if mr Guinn would be a good person to talk to about the originality of the car. And it needs a color change which would be a lot of time, effort and money IMHO </div></div>

I like it BECAUSE it is already black with black houndstooth - I am a sucker for that color combo. The other thing is I could be driving this thing next summer for a total investment of about 30-35K if the parts inventory he has given me on the phone is right. When's the last time you saw a shiny, sorted driver Z with dyno-ed 302 pushing 400 horsepower for that kind of money? I am looking at it as a pound-able, lean-up-against-it-driver, not an investment. But that block damage is a deal-breaker i think.

I don't see it as a rust-free project, more like a couple weekends worth of jig-saw puzzling to get it back together [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

You guys rock, thanks. keep opinions coming...i got about an hour
