I'm feeling out the worth of my project. I'm not convinced on what my path forward is yet but would like everyone's opinion on my Camaro. I bought the car a few years back and removed all the rust. My intentions were to make it a super light auto cross car or track day car. The car is 90% complete and basically lacks wiring and plumbing. There is some labor in paint prep, assembling and mounting the dash and some small odds and ends but it's real close and all the difficult fab has been done. The parts list is long and with no labor, I have a ton of cash invested. Parts list below:

1970 Camaro straight and rust free body with Fiberglas nose, doors and deck lid
DSE Hydroformed front stub
DSE Quadralink with 9" ford
Fully Adj. JRI's with remote reservoirs
Kore 3 Z51 brake package with upgraded rotors and hawk pads
Aluminum 3rd member with 3.89 and a TruTrac
Dynotech aluminum driveline
Autogear--m22w road race trans-close ratio
Mast 416--560 hp/570 ft lbs torque
QuickTime bell housing
Modern Driveline--- chromoly flywheel, Kevlar clutch, pressure plate
Full cage with bulkhead firewall fittings
DSE Mini-Tub
DSE Frame connectors
DSE Brake Booster/master and pro portioning valve
Narrowed SS fuel tank
Corvette regulator filter
Corbeau low back buckets with Harness's
Fiberglass Dash
Custom Built Hurst Super Shifter
18x11 front wheel-Budnik Vapors
18x12 rear wheels-Budnik Vapors
335 rears BFG Rivals
315 fronts BFG Rivals
Aluminum radiator with fans and relays
Corvette Front runner with accessories(AC delete)
Hotchis hood pin kits(4 pins and mounts--340.00)
Eddie Motorsport billet hood hinges
Art Morrison LS HEADERS
Stock steering column and pedal assembly
The list continues and I have several additional original parts

I have a build thread on Lateral-G that follows the build and shows most of the parts listed!!!

So everyone knows, the parts list are all NEW parts except the hood hinges and tires and they are both in good shape. I set out to build a quality and reliable car without short cutting anything. I also didn't modify anything beyond the point that would eliminate someone of mounting original sheet metal or interior as well.

Thanks, Cal

I think it's worth around $25,000 or so and I'll gladly take it off your hands. I've been watching your build and the car is awesome. Looking forward to seeing it completed.

Thanks for the interest but I'm not quite ready to unload it yet for that kind of money.

I'd probably put that car in the $35-40 range. Maybe skewed as I dont follow second gen prices as much but that parts list is a T56 away (for me) from being perfect.

Thanks for the input and originally the T56 or a TKO 600 was in the plan. I decided to use the M22w because I would use the car more often on short course or autocross in the area I live in. Using the M22 still would get the job done and saved a decent amount of weight. As for the value, I appreciate your input and think your closer to a realistic number. The parts list alone with no labor exceeds 50k. Thanks again, Cal

I was joking. That's $45,000 easy, but hope you finish it.

Thank you sir. I have so many projects, I'm not sure where to start. I plan on finishing unless someone is real serious.

Thanks, Cal
