    I just got handed a 1969 Z/28 302DZ from my dad. Hasn't been touched in 30 years! I'm redoing the original tires right now and then a paint job. I'm super excited!

    Basically, this $174,995 Restomod '69 Camaro is a completely new car right down to the new frame and completely new drive train and suspension with a 1969 Camaro body attached on top. Seems wildly over-priced to me but somebody paid nearly $200,000 for it so I guess the old saying is true. "Something is 'worth' whatever someone will pay for it."

  • @p4277
    @p4277 2 роки тому +2

    The resto mod concept has its place I guess, but it’s a shame that they destroyed a ‘69 Z-28 to do it. They could have done the same thing starting with a base model 6 cylinder car and preserved the Z-28. Without the 302 engine and 4 speed, it is no longer a Z-28.

    • @StreetsideClassics
      @StreetsideClassics  2 роки тому +1

      True, it's better to get rid of more of the 6 cylinder motors than the 302's but some still prefer a Z-28 VIN and badging on their restomods

    So you are saying that restomods are actually worth the build cost now, and the last 30 years of auction values are a lie?

    • @StreetsideClassics
      @StreetsideClassics  2 роки тому

      It's not that they're a lie but with Covid and the chip shortage causing a global void of new car inventory, the last 30 years of track record are no longer necessarily valid. Even new Kia's are going for $3-8K over sticker, that never happened in the past 30 years either. It's 2022 and almost every new car lot in the country is lucky to be 10% full....the last 30 years does not apply in this current market.

      If you just want a fast car that you don’t have to do anything to, yup I agree. A 69 has more style and Im able to work on it myself without a computer. I’ll stick with my 69.

If you put a modern A/C unit on the original powertrain, it causes a noticeable drop in power. With a modern LS, the modern A/C has minimal affect on performance.
