Default Re: Anyone Know This Restorer?

I purchased it from the man in Illinois that bought the car @ Mecum in 2005 for $57,000.00. He was selling for a very reasonable price and the car looks like it was nicely done. It has been in a climate controlled garage since he purchased in 2005 and it has not deteriorated at all. The most wrong that I can see if that the rear inner wheel wells were painted the body color - the rest of the car looks pretty correct.

You cannot build these cars for less than $50k - even with a clean shell.

I was asking about the restorer as paint can hide almost all sins - generally a restorer will have a good or bad reputation that will be pretty representative of thier work.

As for the ZL1 motor - I like that idea. I just sold my 427 COPO car and had the desire to get another car. I have a 1969 plane jane Camaro running a 2008 Z06 LS7 dry sump motor backed by a T56 6-Speed but something about the old big block power that I love.
