1965 Chevelle 12 Bolt Question

[69L72RS]

I have sold two of the Z16 rears in the past.
A bare housing went for $2200 and a complate rear went for $3500.

The BE rears used a special heat treated r&p set and a 4-series posi unit with special internals.
There was one made for every COPO car. I believe the rears
were one of the hold ups on the assembly of some of the COPO cars.

There are two "BE" coded rears on Ebay right now.
One is a restamp.
Last month a fake BE sold for $3173.21.

There is only one way to find out what you can get for it, and that is to list it.

And on the "KQ" Chavelle rears, I have been getting outbid on the real ones at $9K+.

Thanks Julian. May I ask where and when you sold them?

[69L72RS]

I didn't have them listed for sale. The buyers contacted me because they heard I had them.
About 3 and 5 years ago.

You have to remember rare does not garantee huge dollars for resale. You indeed have a very special item there however the group that would be interested in it is very small. If a Z16 owner needed one it will bring top dollars, if it is being purchased as just a spare not as much. It cannot be compared to KQ chevelle rears.
I wish you well with your sale and I am sure Dave will assist you with it's true value.

The market is probably larger than it once was. Especially since all the "clone" or "recreations" have been bringing so much $$$. I found a Z16 clone on BJ that sold for $40k recently. People are building Clones of everything and often buying original matching number parts for the big $$$ and getting it when they decide to sell.

I forgot to mention, Todd, the deal is contingent upon you donating a couple of bucks to the sYc - just click on the link at the top of the page. It's a great group of guys (except Kim.......) and there is a wealth of knowledge here. I have also heard that it might be a good way to buy and sell parts......

Kim: I'm sending your floor by carrier pidgeon....Have you made it do this yet?
