I'd like to see the specs. There's a lot more to a Z/28 besides fenders, fascia, etc. Looks good though.

Very nice, but still doesn't make it a Z/28.. Let's run the VIN.

The guy owns a Z/28 he tore it apart, then tore his vert down to just the frame and put all of the Z/28 parts (engine, suspension, ect....) on the vert frame.

I read the same article you did. IMO he has a Z/28 clone. The numbers do not match.

the VIN is the VIN is the VIN
But we can argue and debate it all day. He can call the car a ham sandwich and what we say makes no difference. He's making no attempt to conceal what he did.

So it sounds like he has a non numbers matching Z/28? How does this effect resell value?

What I'd rather want to know is what he's doing with the z/28 carcass

I don't think he really cares about the value of it or he wouldn't of done it in the first place . He built the car he wanted . Got to give the guy some respect for building a bad ass convertable .
