Re: How much would you bid... (paso)
hard to tell from the limited descriptions, but I will take a guess:
The black "L88" i will be surprised if it goes for more than $20k. As far as I can tell it is a NOM bigblock 68. I always cringe when they say something like "rare color"..... black..... No mention of numbers. I dont think they are even suggesting it is an original L88. fun car, but not big bucks.
The red roadster, however... does say all numbers match, looks great, if it is as original as they claim, could bring high 30s or even more. Again, it's hard to tell how good it really is. do they mention mileage? MJ

Pretty limited on the descriptions maybe because thet have around 600 cars listed on the site for auction. :confused:

Re: How much would you bid... (MNJack)
Agreed on the "L-88." There are so many things wrong on the blalck car for it to be an L-88 that one wonders about what you can't see. This includes the air cleaner, the carb, the wires, the hoses, the valve covers, the side exhaust, the singray name on the side (which if I am correct did not appear on any '68's), the radiator shroud, etc etc etc. I would like to know what they claim is L-88 about it? Oh, and I believe that is a radio antenna on the back. Sheesh!!
The '69 if it is what it says it is looks like a nice car.
Here are my tow picks from the Chevy section:
A real Yenko Camaro

and
the LS-6 Chevelle convertible:

Re: How much would you bid... (squeaky g)
Everything about the Black one is waaayyy too Bubba'd up for my taste. :smash:
Now the Red Vert is another story...real sweet, if all true. I would imagine somewhere in the mid 30's...or more (if all the #s are correct, otherwise in the 20's). The one thing right though that I didn't like, but it's fixable, is the goofy angle of the rear mufflers.
