I think maybe a little research on Z16 cars should be done before making the statement it isn't worth it. The Z16 was the first SS 396 Chevelle The Z16 option was just under $1500.00 putting the car at about $4300.00.
Here is a couple links to Z16 articles.In June I was able to spend 4 days @ Chevellabration and had the opportunity to spend many hours drooling over the "first off the line Z16" owned by Terry Gunter. Value of Terry's car? Many of us who have seen it place its value between $450-500 K. This car was just taken off the line and made into a Z16. Many of the parts were hand made and to be quit frank fit very poorly. This was my first Z16 I ever have seen in person. For the last 5 years I have been buying Z16 parts in hope of maybe one day finding a car to bid on or to restore. In the last 5 years this is only the third (Restored) Z16 that has came up publicly for sale that I know of. In late May of this year the supposedly "Dan Blocker Z16" sold for $250,000.00.I happen to be one of the "suckers" that is bidding on the car. Unfortunately $125,100.01 was my last attempt to own one of America's most desired and sought after muscle cars. Today I received a phone call from the guy selling the car telling me the reserve is $175,000. Unfortunately it is $25,000 more than I have available and $50,000 more than my wife agreed I could bid on it. So for now I'm back to looking for a unrestored Z16 or maybe the dreaded thought of Cloning one.Sucker Larry (Z)
