Well, it's a pretty car, very appealing in the colors/trim/etc..  AND it's one of those very rare Tonawanda DZ engines.. :)    but I can accept someone's poor attempt at a clone engine (99% of people know better than that!) better than I can that upside down seal on the air cleaner, which is seems that half of the people buying them don't know their up from their down!~.. :)

I kinda like the fake DZ engine, the fake cowl tag, and the "Hoodstooth" interior.  ;D

A 302 with M21 and 3.07 gears. That will eat a few clutches!

I had a 327 with that trans and rear, tough to get it moving, bet the 302 would be worse! No pics of door panels or rest of interior, strange!

There must be a market for fake Z28's - seems like most advertised have tag, stamp or casting number issues ???...and this car has 19 bids?

Definitely looks nice enough though.

one lie will branch into many...what's under the pretty paint?

Is a pretty car per pics,  very poor choice of rear gear for a 302..why  ??? But relatively cheap fix.


Bids under real Z price....if it's clean...these cars aren't cheap to build ;)...if re-building right.

Yep..  quite a market, but the supply seems to be keeping up with demand.  :)
