I agree. Nice car, paperwork and still has the solids, which he is right, most of them have been changed. Even the relplacement cam/solid sets just don't seem the same as the originals for some reason?

My 70Z Copo has the originals, and I have changed two 70 Z's back to solids, and I just don't think the replacements are quite the same (the crane cams replacements?)

Wrong exhaust manifolds, wrong master cylinder, missing rear bumperettes, wrong interior color, grill looks silver and it should be black, and the seller states in his auction "Everything on the car is correct and original to the car".

If the dash is original that means he painted it because it would have been blue.

If money is no option as he states then why not do it correctly???

[/ QUOTE ] You are correct,however if you had a car that had all those parts being correct on the car but not the paperwork shown in the last picture, wouldnt you trade it for the car shown ?? Parts can be found and purchased,paperwork cant.

I agree. All small stuff, the important stuff is there. The paperwork and the numbers matching driveline.

It is REALLY hard to find a 70 Z with the numbers matching motor!

I will admit, the parts listed as missing in the above post certainly arent cheap or easy parts to find either,but paperwok is always the first priority

The seller of this white car had a Mulsanne Blue one listed 9-12 months ago that he also refurbished and sold. I had a noted Camaro guru look at this Blue car which was also heavily documented but he thought the car was quite overpriced. He was working on this white one at the time and said it would be nicer than the blue one.

Did I see someone on this board has their 70Z listed on another site?

I sold a really nice forest green 70 Z not long ago....
Had the 70 COPO up, but wanted to keep one 70 Z, so when the green one sold, I took the COPO off the market.

The car has good documentation and I like the car and wouldn't mind owning it. I also like the gold Z.
My point is the seller clearly states "Everything on the car is correct and original to the car". Key word.."Everything".
He does contradict himself by saying the interior is not the correct color. I believe the gold car is represented a lot better.

Agreed, parts can be found. Just wait until the next owner tries to find the correct exhaust manifolds with correct dates along with the correct smog system. Better have deep pockets.

I am neck deep into the restoration of my 1970 Z and have given up trying to make it 100% correct. I'm just going to make it the way I want it so I can drive the d~!@#$% thing.

No, not the one/s. Maybe I should have posed it as a statement and not a question.
