Has the 1971 Z28 prices gone up this much, I remember a while back you could pick one up for much less.







from the article:

Good question. If you can't do the work to restore one to that condition, then it's probably worth it, as you'd pay more to buy a clunker and have it done to that level. If you have the skill to do most of the restoration yourself, then the answer is, No.
I see one mistake on their ad though, or a mistake in the restoration.
"Less than 10% received the Z87 black deluxe cloth interior with AK1 deluxe seat belts. "
The car pictured does not have deluxe cloth interior. It has the vinyl seats, not cloth.

Kind of steep. NADA high retail is only 41k.

I'm sure that since it's at a dealer, the asking price is set a bit higher so they have room to negotiate.

The Z87 option is the deluxe interior that came with cloth or vinyl seats. It's their ad writing error saying the car has cloth seats.
"Completely restored"? The engine compartment doesn't reflect that, everything should look like new, not have rusty components. And why does the front carpeting look worn?
