So, just out of curiosity, is there some reason the car and engine were not reunited?

$150,000 is a lot of money for a car that rust starting to show on some of the hardware and has evidence of oil sprayed all over the exhaust from a pinion seal leak.

I think it's ''buyer beware''on this car.If I had $150K to spend there are a lot nicer and original cars for sale.Might get 2.

Probably because the owner of the engine wanted more money then the owner of the car wanted to pay. Holding the engine for ransom I would guess. The owner of #62 should take the engine out of his car,drop it on the side of the road in the next town over from this guy and call the car in stolen,then tell the cops that he found out who stole his car and where the engine went. I wonder how that would play out? But who knows the real story,I am just being a douche of course. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

The eBay ad states &quot;There are just three 1969 ZL1 Camaros in existence that are still fitted with their original engines and to see one would be almost like spotting a unicorn&quot;. Is that a false statement or what???

I believe this car has been discussed before. The original ad stated that the ZL1 engine made it a ZL1.
