What would keep you from putting those (hard parts) on that beautiful platform you've already invested alot into, and know every inch of better (perhaps) than another 1st gen ?

I REALLY don't want to pull this one back apart. I'm buried in it and don't want to spend any more money on it- Chris

How do you spend all that time building a car and not drive it! That's like going to the strip club and not getting lap dance.

There is a consignment store near me in Dublin and another one in Pleasanton that sells these things all day long. Maybe you could send your car to them? The last fully done camaro they had was selling for over 100K and it was only there a month before it sold. Also, it wasn't as cool as yours!

Which Camaro was that? I go in there (Kassabian) fairly often and they have the most ridiculous markups.

It was a blue one. The whole underneath was cherry. Every nut and bolt was new. They were asking 100K if I remember right and the last time I went in there it was gone so Im assuming they sold it?

Wait nevermind I think it was this one. I didnt see it last time I went in there though

OK I will go put my foot in my mouth. DOH!!

Ha. Nice car but I'll bet the owner said I want $60k for it and they marked it up to 99k!

3 years ago I almost bought a local 69 Camaro privately before the guy ended up taking it to Kassabian. He was asking $42 or 45k for the car on craigslist, and dropped it off at Kassabian for them to try to sell and they priced is at $79k!! We are talking a nice clean 69 with a built 406, muncie 4 speed, 12 bolt and some 17" torque thrusts! :willy:

Anyway, back to the original topic.... this is a good value for a well built car!

Spencer Wetherall builds those cars. He reproduced that distinctive ZL-1 emblem that was only on the 2 prototype ZL-1's RS cars Chevy built in '69. Its his 'signature' on a build, since he doesn't sell the emblems separately.

Off track, but it works out as a bump...
