Opinions please, is an original car like this worth more, less or the same as a restored example?

I would say, generally speaking, it's worth less than a restored-to-perfection example. But again, generally speaking, you would have a different buyer demographic for the two types of car (restored or original).

Was this car ever sold 2 years ago?

There only original once! So I think an NICE all original survivor car should be worth more then a restored car that could be hiding some major issues, or poor craftsmanship?

BUT that being said, my all original survivor 1978 Z28 has had issues when I did advertise it. People say they can get one with fresh body and paint, or built motor for less?
