Default Re: realistic price for 70 Z-28

I just picked up a 70Z, Citrus Green with 49K miles, CW Turbo 400, no rust, no smog, one repaint, all original except for correct CE warranty replacement motor, almost perfect interior, non-rs, for $21,500. It is a geat starting point for a resto since most of the hard to find items are there.

I have even talked with the son of the first owner since 70 or 71 and he claimed the motor was overheating and the engine was dealer replaced sometine in the early 70's. That would match up with the blocks casting date of 1971 and one 492 service head dated 1972. The other head is a 186 casting, dated Jan 1970. It even has the original spare tire.

Apparently, the father bought the car in 70 or 71 for his son while he was in High School. It's a wonder he didn't wrap it around a telephone pole.

Getting ready to hunker down for Hurricane Rita. Best of luck to everybody.
