Re: Original motor vs. replacement
It seems to me that the value of a dealer conversion car is dependant on its paperwork and/or verifiable history verifying it as such. A dealer conversion with a correct replacement engine (not the engine put in by the dealer/conversion shop), or no engine at all, is still worth a pile of money if it can be verified. A '67 Nickey 427 Camaro with all the right original paperwork but with a '69 427 engine is still extremely valuable because it can be verified as an original Nickey 427 conversion.
