When I bought my '69 Z I was told the story that a previous owner was interested in the pro-touring style and off-hand asked for a quote from a high-end SoCal shop for what it would take starting with this Z. Mercifully the shop straight up refused to do it to this car. So thankfully some shops like that do exist and say no!

For those curious, the seller states the original drivetrain and other parts come with the car if sold -------
"Throughout this build most of the original parts were kept such as engine, transmission, rear differential, all suspension, original front subframe and good small parts which are bagged and labeled. Good condition interior parts were kept as well. There are several pallets that will accompany this sale if the buyer wants it. Also, the original metal hood was fitted, prepped and painted to the same high quality as the rest of the car and is included.

Why wouldnt you just use a clean body 1970 Camaro instead of tearing everything out of an original car like this. You would have the same result. Just doesnt make any sense.

Ha! $375k...I don't believe it for a second...but even if it were 1/4 that amount, I'd be surprised if you would recover the build cost.

I don't understand why the original certified car did not have a black grille?

For $375K they could have easily started from a rusted out shell and accomplished the same thing

Maybe due to COPO?

Pretty sure no, the COPO was only for the spoiler equipment. Of course, the grill could have been changed long before I bought it. Plenty of reasons after that long on why.
Grill should have been to GM specs as any other color car.
