Keep the setup as you planned. It's hard when your caught up in it, but don't panic. You WILL sell the boat and car. You have had it for 5 yrs., what is another couple months. From someone who wishes I would have kept a few cars along the way, just stay on course, you will look back later and say WOW I did it.

1968 Camaro with 94 Impala SS LT1/4L60E and converted to 4 wheel disc brakes. Recent paint, but not a show winning paint job. Solid car built in LOS and spent most of it's life out west. Still needs finishing(needs a speedometer hooked up, needs gauges, needs headliner installed, it could use some programming to adjust idle. I have new kick panels and console OD conversion kit on the way. Fun car. Asking $13,500 obo.
Here's a link. 68 LT1 Camaro ![]()

Tough decisions Jeff! I think you need to be honest with yourself regarding your financial situation and what really turns your crank with respect to the car. If the car had some T/A history with a crossram etc. I would definitely think twice about selling the crossram set-up. However, if it was a street car for its entire life I would restore it to its original, as-delivered to the dealer condition. The fact that it's a numbers matching, documented JL8 is where the value and interest would be for me. If you sell the '68 what are you going to drive for fun? I doubt you'll be putting too many miles on the JL8 from what you have posted about it. Just my thoughts, good luck with your decision

You've come this far. Stay with it and finish it the way you want. As far as value goes, I would think it would be worth more with extra stuff on it when it's done.

Jeff, Do you want to drive the car? I know somebod who has a crossram Z and is taking it off so he can drive it a lot more next year. Any other comments on the drivability of a crossram.

--------Chris brings up a good point. Not that you are doing this for monetary reward (perish the thought), but we all saw what a well turned out, made up, JL8/crossram car did at Barrett/Jackson. Its possible that you should think forward to what the cars ultimate value is going to be to figure out which way to go on this!............Bill S
