Am I the only one thinking that COPO clone pricing has gotten out of hand these days?

[1967 4K]

No your not the only one!!

[Lynn]

That seller RARELY sells a car on ebay. They purposely over price it so much that no informed buyer would reach reserve or hit "buy it now".
They hope to then make a deal off of ebay so the buyer has no buyer protection.

So, don't assume the price is really the price.

That car has so many things wrong (even for a clone) they are lucky to have one bid at $75k.

We will start with the exterior of this Camaro. It's done in the ZL-1 Replica style with no front or rear spoilers. It does sport the front and rear chrome bumpers, drip rail moldings, and lower rocker moldings. The body on it is in phenomenal condition and we can see that the time and care was put into the fit and finish. All the body lines flow seamlessly from front to back, and all the gaps are even and symmetrical. Everything is showcased in the Hugger Orange paint that was redone in the base coat clear coat. The paint on this Camaro has a stunning finish that's sure to turn heads wherever you go. You'll notice that the grill, headlights, and tail lights all look to have been replaced along with all the emblems. All new weather stripping was also installed, and we can see that all the glass is excellent with the side glass going up and down with a great fit.

We can see all new door panels were installed along with new handles and armrests. It features the front bucket seats that were completely redone along with the rear seat. New carpet and headliners were also installed along with new seal plates. This Camaro features the floor-mounted Hurst 4 Speed shifter. Looking at the dash we can see the pad has an excellent fit and that the Speedometer and Gas Gauge are working as they should. It has the stock-style Camaro Steering wheel with a wood grain accent. Inside the trunk is all rock solid from the jam to the pan. It's detailed out in the spatter paint along with having the correct style trunk mat, matching spare, and jack.
Finally, will get to the heartbeat of this Chevrolet. Under the hood the same meticulous eye to detail is evident. The inner fenders, firewall, and radiator support are all rock solid. The attention to detail was clearly displayed with the use of tower clamps and the appropriate hoses, lines, and wiring. The power comes from the all-aluminum ZL-1 427 Engine.

Setting up this ZL-1 427 with the correct intake and carb was crucial in giving a real ZL1 feel. But it's also equipped with the GM smog pump and exhaust manifolds along with having the '69 Electronic Ignition. The Exhaust flows through a new set of dual pipes and mufflers with the rear exiting tips. It does come equipped with Power Brakes that feature Disc on the front. Under the front, all the suspension was redone at the time of the restoration along with new subframe bushings being installed. When we look under this Camaro you are sure to be impressed with the quality of the restoration as the floor pans are exceptional along with the frame rails.

Does the engine hold any value?

[Lynn]

Sure it does. But I don't think it is a vintage ZL1. I believe it is one of the ones sold over the counter 15 or so years ago.

IIRC, they were about $20k.

Would have come dressed like this: https://www.eagleridgegm.com/parts-d...19166392-sale/

Looks like they put vintage style valve covers on it.

[RPOLS3]

Agree things have gotten expensive.........but my guess is you probably couldn't duplicate that car for what they are asking.
