value of a ZL 1 clone with a real ZL1 motor

It's an L78 convertible... of course!

Love those L-78 rags. As for the original engine vs non discussion, I'd like the original engine everytime if it's an all other things being equal situation which it seldom is. My hemicuda rag won SS eliminator at the '73 US Nats as well as 26 other eliminator victories that year. It has none of its original drivetrain as is the case with most serious race cars. I wouldn't trade even for one with all original mechanicals. To me it comes down to the particular car. It's probably a good thing we don't all think the same or we might all be chasing the dozen or so perfect cars.
