Okay, Tony.
A Z16 sold on ebay for $150k last year, the Hoss Cartright Z16 sold for $250k last spring. There are about 65 known cars extant (restored, unrestored)of the 201 built.
I know of a couple of others that sold in the past year or so but were not advertised publicly. 3 of the people that I know that owned 3 or more Z16's have sold one or more in the last couple years.
The convertible has never been found to my knowledge although there are some knowledgeable Z16 folks that do believe (and claim to have proof) that it existed. The trail went cold years ago. IF the convert turns up (I doubt it does and it would be real hard to fake), look for 7 figures.
I see very strong demand (read
rices) for these cars in the future. Fakes shouldn't be too much of a problem (unlike 69 xram, JL8 Z's) as there are too many parts unique to these 201 cars. I think that is why I'm so intrigued: so much to learn, so extremely rare. Fascinating.
I just bought my second red car. Now if I can only find a black car and a yellow one I'll be all set. Let me know when the barn find turns up......
Oh yeah, just getting started on the Z16Chevelle.com website. Nothing there yet, but look for some of my research, resto photos and little known facts, etc. soon.
