ZL 1 #51

[Mr70]

In no way am I siding with anyone on here,or elsewhere but I thought it has been stated & established a few times in the past,that the true dollar value of a 1969 ZL-1 Camaro did not matter at all if it DID or DIDN'T have it's original born with engine.
As long as it was in the VIN List with clean history and deemed authentic as one of the real 1969 ZL-1 Camaros,it's value was as golden as the few others remaining.
The answer given repeatedly was because so few were originally made,only 69,this car was the exception to the normal car buyers guideline,and THESE buyers were willing to pay the highest amount just to have one,with or without it's original born with engine...period.
Did this change? Does not having it's original born with engine effect it's value that much today?
