You want how much !!!!

Just wondering what your thoughts were on the prices of Muscle cars today? This is a reality check I think. If a 69 Yenko Camaro(original motor car)is bringing 120-150, what's the chance of finding a Real Yenko Camaro with all the right goodys for 75-90? Would you say that a #'s matching ZL1 is worth more or less than a non-original motor? Like the RS's would be to the #1-3 car and then the most restored ZL1 to a 4 speed versus an auto.What order would you put these cars in(even the #1 car)? Original motor cars had offers of over 300 and refused,what would that make them worth in the food chain? They can not all be the same price! The 71 Hemi Cuda convertible (1 of 7 made)is turning down very big offers and no one is selling! Where would that put the LS6 Chevelle convertibles?Paperwork is everything in that world! If the paperwork doesn't have the T's crossed and the I's dotted it's worth nothing to most. Someday the Buicks and the Pontiacs will come up. LOL. We all know of ZL1's that have been getting over 200. Very few squeaking out cheaper. When you think of prices you have to think about the order you would put them in!
If Z28's are bringing in the 40's to high 40's,what would a highly documented original unrestored Copo Camaro bring? Sorry guys for all the questions, but this is the most asked question I get and would love to hear your OPINION! "What somebody is willing to pay!" Makes you really think about the reality of the Muscle car world and where it is going. You are not going to see many ZL1's change hands any time soon. Have fun with this discussion!

You already answered the question. "What somebody is willing to pay". And the way the stock market is and ever since 9/11, people seem to want to enjoy life a little more and not worry about tomorrow as much. So people who have "always wanted a ????" are now going out and buying one. They do a quick check on the car market and find that musclecars are climbing in value so they find a car they like and pay a little more than they should. But then the next guy comes along and pays a little more than that and the market continues to climb. I have a lot of money put into my 69 Z28 JL8 that I'm having restored right now, but I know that if I get put in a tough situation financially, I'll be able to sell the car easily and recoup most of my money. I'm not doing the car to make money, I wanted a 69 Z28 and I wanted it to be different and stick out in a crowd. Now where did you find that matching # Yenko for 120K?

The October 2002 Issue of the 'Robb Report Collection' has a Special feature article on Muscle Cars with special attention given to the Yenko Chevelle.

Steve,give us a taste of what that article went into.I don't get the Robb report.

To paraphrase, it says that the Yenko Chevelle was the Biggest/Baddest Muscle Car of the 1960's.
