OUCH! That is such a SAAAAWWWEEEEEEEEEEEEET! looking machine. Very menacing with that black paint and those righteous torque thrusts. Good luck!








P.S. if you don't sell it......

This is one Z28 that I would really like to own.

Great looking car.

If it does not have the original engine, I'm somwhat suprised/confused at the $100K asking price.

Most opinions were in the $30-$50 range back in May 07 when this car was 1st purchased. Yes the cars been cleaned up. Yes the engine had been gone through. What supports this type of asking price w/out the original engine? How does it go from $35K-$50K to $100K in 6 months?

1) Look at the build dates of the car, the VIN, the firewall tag, and the engine block and they all are in the normal casting/assembly time span for a 3rd week April 1969 car. If you cant have the original block, this is as close as you are ever going to get.

2) It's a survivor in factory black with the original paint and all it's original components including the silver grill.

3) It's in amazing shape and I'd love to own the darn thing if I win the lottery or the Superbowl pool.

I agree with the statements, but I thought only documented cars with a iron clad owner trail would command this type of price.

he can ask whatever price he likes.
he, or she, could ask for 250k.
the value or "market" will be wherever buyer and seller eventually meet if a sale takes place.

I fully understand this concept 100%. I'm just trying to figure out how the car "may have" doubled in value in 6 months.

Rob, I think you can only say "doubled" if it indeed sells for that much. An asking price can be anything and shouldn't be used as a benchmark. The selling point here is the low mileage, original paint and just overall originality. Heck, you can't beat the options on this car, black with RS... Even though the motor is long gone it's a very nice replacement. Fully restored cars are a dime a dozen. It's the survivor type cars that are always in demand.

Heck, if anyone wants my restored original drivetrain Z for $100k I'm open to discuss...

Again, if I had the $ it would be on its way to my house already.
