The car owner knows what he has... one of the most desirable colors with a M22.
As far as ZL1's go the two RS's are the most wanted then the Yellow cars. </div></div>
While it may be steep and "not in the spirit", I'd probably pay that to make the car whole again </div></div>
You would pay 120K for that ZL1 engine ? </div></div>
Charley, it has always been my opinion a ZL1 without its original engine is not worth <span style="font-style: italic">anywhere near</span> what one with its original motor should be valued at. We had a discussion before on here before that there are ZL-1's worth north of 1m <span style="font-style: italic">without</span> their born with engine, which I viewed as quite strange bordering on ridiculous. The hobby beats the heck out of a Z's value without its original block, but give a NOM ZL1 a pass on that. I understand the rarity differential and historical aspect, but Jeebus. But I guess every car is worth what someone will pay </div></div>
Holding an engine ransom for twice its actual worth just because it belongs to an existing ZL1 Camaro could also be viewed as "quite strange bordering on ridiculous". I wouldn't give the jerk the 120K either, just on principle.
