'66 ZL1 Corvette
Friend of mine told me he's interested in this ZL1 Corvette. Looks nice in the pics, but I'm wondering if the real-world value is anywhere near $75k. What do you guys think?

I don't think so. I'm with you. Nothing nostalgic about it. Nice looking but that's alot of jing

Re: '66 ZL1 Corvette
----Joe,,,What exactly makes you think this car was a small-block? I see a 427/390 tach and an 80lb oil pressure guage which says to me big-block. What am I missing? Pretty nice car that should get out of its own way and has had a bunch of money spent on the drivetrain. If nothing else I see the value closer to that $75,000 figure.......Bill S

Re: '66 ZL1 Corvette
I asked him if it was originally a big block car. He said no... it still has the small fuel line. The guy he got it from did the engine swap.

Does the custom paint kill it that much?. I think I need to try my hand on eBay and see if I can sell my car.

Re: '66 ZL1 Corvette
----Easy for me to say, Don, but you haven't found the right ass for the seat yet! Don't let the naysayers get to you. That car, if nothing else is 4 quarters and a paint job from being a $75ish Vette. Remember, yours is a coupe and that plays into the comparison to this convert too. With all that said, I wouldn't change a thing on your 67. Well, maybe Id pull the front bumpers like we all did back in the day. Love it, and would be proud to pull into any cruise-in......Bill S

Re: '66 ZL1 Corvette
----Joe,,, Maybe, but both fuel lines are 3/8ths, although small and big-block do differ a bit. If that's all he is basing it on, I think Id want to check the car out with my own eyes if I were interested. The car also has a big-block radiator support......Bill S
