L88
Holy smokes! A 67 L88 (yeah, I know this is the C3 forum) just sold for 3.2 million. Caught the tail end...assume it's current.
BTW..saw it on Mecum.

They advertise the body panels as "original" but do not use that word when mentioning the drivetrain. http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_de...=DA0913-165417

wonder what one would bring with its factory born with motor .
they didn't even use the words matching numbers,much less orginal drive train
to much for car without its original main part that makes it an L88...that kind of money all the major items need to be there.
so....he paid 3 mil for a tank sticker and a few old pics of a beat c2 at a drag strip
that's hard up to brag when selling points..when all that you have original to show for 3 mil is a few body panels..... I'd rather have the original frame , engine , trans and axle for that investment......wow look original L88 body panel.......?? oh well what ever floats their boat.

watch ....in a couple years this car will pop out of the wood work with a complete matching numbers drivetrain and total documentation and affidavit from Obama himself that it has its born with drivetrain.
correct and original are two completely different things to me...
so next fool,will pay 20 mil for a recreation of a tank sticker.
