Default Re: 69 Z28 Sold for $112,000

Here is part of a email I recieved regarding the Z28..... "Yes, the car is an original Z28 but, that is as far as it goes. The story about the car being redone as a custom is true. However, he lost interest and sold the rest of the car before completion. The kid did not try to pass it off as a JL8 car.

When the new owner started the rebuild he had someone examine the rear end and the brakes and was told it was a JL8 car. The restoration was finished and the car was offered for sale.

I had a friend talk to the kid's Father about the car as it was the kids Uncle's car. The Father was a mechanic specializing in brakes and suspension. He clearly recalls adding the rear end and the brakes with his brother. They were able to obtain parts from GM at the time.

The cross-ram must have been added in the last 6 month. It was not sold with the car. Also I am not sure if it had spoilers but they were added after."
