I'm not an expert......but I would say that the interior is original.........

[/ QUOTE ] I really think its been redone ken. if you look close at the seats,The pleats are not deep enough as the originals,also the padding looks to be too much and the door panels look like the thick ones. also notice theres no difference in color in the armrest bases and seatbacks!! looks fresh. at 30k there would be some discoloration. MAYBE IM TOO PICKY!

That,s what neat about this site, you're probably right as I'm not a Chevlle guy (X'cept for 66's).....just going by what the owner said.....Mistake #1

The Corvette is a 1966 427 cubic inch/390 horse power car. All 1966 BBC Vettes had single Holleys. In 1967 the tri-power was offered in 400 and 435 horse power increments. Those motors came with 3 x 2 carbs. The difference between the motors were the lifters. Solid lifters in the 435 and hydraulic on the 400.

Really neat cars! That Chevelle is stunning! What does he want for the Z28? Paper work? Original Motor? Trans? Rear? Let me know!

To underscore what has already been mentioned:

Yes the '69 has had a restoration (as has the Chevelle's interior...yes,your right about those pleats and lack of fading is a dead giveaway)but as was mentioned,I would CERTAINLY make room for it in my garage!

GOD,HOW AWESOME DOES A '69 Z/28 LOOK IN BLACK?

Too bad he decided to put the wrong master cylinder in it...I see that often and it's so obvious .

Great license plates on both cars though...
