There was a red red ZL1 clone at this years Barrett-Jackson that had the actual engine out of the car it cloned.

I missed this one. What was the story here? How much did such a frankenstein fetch? How did they end up with the engine, and is it known what happened to the actual car?

$134k. Charley, is #62 Frank DiHartce's car or is his the other red ZL-1?

[Charley Lillard]

Frank has the red black ZL1. The silver RS ZL1 is owned by Craig Jackson.

[/ QUOTE ] That should answer the question of which is more desireable, the original car without its original engine or an original engine in a clone car.

Charley, are you saying that the #68 ZL-1 is owned by Craig Jackson or that he owns another silver RS ZL-1?

Hey Bocephus, why would you call ZL-1 built Camaros Frankenstein's. Frankenstein was a stitched together abomination. I promise you my ZL-1 built cars are nether stitched together or abominations and there's a lot more to building one than throwing some Z28 stripes on the hood and deck lid.

"but, the fellas that try to build a car that is a total copy....hmmm, i gotta wonder"

Do you really think that someone could be scammed by a fake ZL-1 with the wrong vin, I don't think so. That's why ZL-1 Camaros are the perfect car to clone because no future owner could ever pass it off as the real deal.

Give me a frankenstein like this any day! Of course, what's more of the Zl1, the "real" car with a "clone" motor, or the "clone" car with the "real" motor?
