<span style="font-size: 11pt">Does it run?? Condition of engine would seem to be an important component.

Very neat car...I'm not a Camaro guy, but I would say it should fetch good money if everything is there and the engine is not damaged. The Canadian and dealer docs are huge plus...

Wonder how owners come up with an unreasonable expectation...I was told $40,000 as is. $15 at best.

[luzl78]

I think it's worth more than 15,000 especially with the docs and original drivetrain and high performance pedigree. I said 40,000 cause this is a wacky car world we live in

[JamesinHBCA]

I am thinking it's a 50-60K car restored and a 20-25k as it sits.

Definitely rusty, but the worth saving.

Pretty sure the owner is not looking for anywhere near 40K as is. He is just looking for a reasonable price range.

Is the car still in Canada James? If so where?

Sells for 25-30,000 takes 50-70,000 to restore it and is worth 50,000 after 80-1000,000 is into it.
