If the car was a complete numbers car and in pristine condition you are looking into the $30K range or more depending on condition, rarity of options, etc.

Probably quite a bit more.

I agree Bob!
Second generation cars are
finally on the band wagon of $$$$

I am going to agree and disagree. Not all second gen Camaros are going to bring big money. Only one in my opinion and that is the 1970 L78 Camaro. With only 600 copies made it should be the premier second gen to own.

When I say not yet I mean today, maybe in few years they will demand bigger dollars. It will happen.

First I should clarify, I was referring to the sec. gen. Z28 cars.

Rick... While logically your point makes good sense, many people get fed up with the search of trying to find an original 70 L-78 and end up buying a solid, original, documented (what have you) 1970 Z28 because they are more readily available in excellent condition. The last few publicly sold 70 L-78 Camaros all had NOM (in one form or another). The buyers drive the market and if no one buys or sells any of those 600 Camaros than how can you properly measure the market?

I agree... lets wait and see.

I started looking for a 70 Z28 about 2 years ago. At that time there were some pretty decent ones for around 18. When I found the one I wanted a year and a half ago, it was 25. I think the prices will continue to rise on them.

PS..Thanks Darren.

Having looked at 25-30 70Z's for over a year here's my observations.

1.A super nice, done right, 70 will cost you 45K-50k+ assuming you can find one. And if you do find one of these you better buy it on the spot or someone else will get it before you.

2. Anything restored even if restored poorly will get 40K.

3. Restored but missing correct engine 30-35k.

4. The hardest part about buying a 70Z is finding a nice one. I was getting to the point of giving up I was so frustrated..seriously.

I'd say list it on E-Bay with a nice presentation and let the process do the rest.

Good Luck!

Hmmm so what would you think a 1970 Z/28 with solid body and complete interior but missing the motor and tranny would be worth? Car is solid but needs restoring. In your opinion. I am being serious and find this topic interesting.

35 to 50k is no longer considered big money unfortunately. You won't find a CORRECTLY restored Z for anywhere near 35k anymore IMO...everything has gone up and so goes the 70 1/2 Z's...and the 71+ Chevelles and ....on and on...nothing cheap anymore.
