Default Re: Chance to buy a 68 Z-28

The ZL-2 induction hood wasn't an option in 68, was it? I thought it was a 67 and 69 option only. The only real problem that I have found with 68s is that you HAVE to have paperwork to verify what a car is. It seems as though undocumented 68s are worth far less than undocumented 67 and 69s because of trim tag codes (67) and X codes (69). Am I accurate in my thoughts?

Yes, but having the numbers matching 302 I would think should verify it. I remember reading somewhere that early 68 Z-28's had 302 on the fender instead of Z-28?

the ZL2 hood wasnt available in 68, but a cowl plenum was. If its got documentation of being a legit cowl plenum Z I would think it to be a pretty desirable car.

Agreed, I think the key with 68s is to make sure they are well documented. A 68 is the easiest thing to fake, that is one of the reasons I decided to make my plain jane a Yenko clone instead of an SS or Z. I don't want anyone thinking I am going to try and do anything dishonest down the road and pass it off as something it isn't. Well, that and the 68 Yenko is soooooo cooool!

Early 68's had 302 on the fender. Late 68's had Z28, not sure where the cut off was but I think the 302 emblems were only a few months.

I would guess at least 15K the way it sits assuming it was a decent car before taken apart.
