Default Re: Opinion on 69 Z28 for sale

Just a thought... If it's your goal to get the car back to "numbers matching" or "correct" do some checking into the prices of the parts you'll have to replace.

My current project, an L78 Chevelle, is 100% numbers matching (engine, trans, rear) with docs, but has the wrong carb, distributor and smog. My goal is to restore the car to factory correct, and those three items are not only hard to find, but expensive. I didn't really contemplate that when I forked out the $19k for the car, not to mention the extensive sheetmetal work it needed.

The price sounds fair if it's what you're looking for. But if your goal is loftier, you better add in the price of the missing parts BOME (Based On My Experience).
