Default Re: value of a ZL 1 clone with a real ZL1 motor

Exactly. Its like a ransom request where the victims refused to pay Good for them,thier cars are worth about the same anyway,and the fact its known the original motor is out there[and where it is exactly] its almost as good as having it.

The owner is asking 1.4 mil for the car and does not want the orignal motor. King you sell motors for more than he is asking.

It would nice to see it happen and everyone is cool with things at the end.

Came up here a few months back : https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/showflat...true#Post255935


King, just out of curiosity, if you had this motor what would you think would be the fair market value?

That's an interesting statement. As long as you know it exists and you know where it is, maybe its not necessary to purchase the motor at ransom prices.

If someone here posted they had the original motor to one of my cars ,id be less inclined to want it/or to pay big money for it than if they had contacted me privately and said they had it and didnt let me know where it was. Ill also bet that if it wasnt a ZL1 it would be more desirable to the cars authenticity simply because the VIN #s of zl1s are known so the motor is less important. If the vins werent known on these cars,that zl1 motor would be priceless to the zl1 owner. And again by someone saying they have your motor and they said what it is publicly,theyve actually given you some free documentation and you dont really need it as bad .

Without that original engine, then what makes the ZL-1 Camaro so desireable? It is just like another Camaro with TI, M22 & HD 4:10 axles, an iron block COPO would be just as valuable.

I Agree. I'd rather have a proper "clone" with a real ZL1 driveline than a "ZL1" with a "Clone" driveline.

My 02.,

What I'd really like is a LM1 car with a ZL1 Engine (Hey! They both end in 1's!). Certified, of course.
