Hi everyone, I'm another newbie here so hopefully I won't make any mistakes. I've been into old hot rods and muscle cars for over 45 years and currently own a 55 Chevy 210 with a mild small block, M-22 trans and a 4:33 rear that was basically home built from the bare frame with a few updates like front disc brake conversion, totally re-wired etc. The small block is getting real tired and I WAS going to do a 4 bolt 350 , with new internals, plus my tunnelram. I've run into the "possibility" of scoring a honest to God Z-11 engine that's been sitting totally apart for years. The owner was a builder that passed away and everything I guess was just left in his shop. Assuming that all of the parts are still there, I have NO idea of what to offer his widow or what would be a fair price . Can someone steer me in the right direction on value ? and if I score the Z-11 I'll be sure to post pics and other info as I try to put this monster back together...Thank you in advance !!
the Z would be a once in a lifetime opportunity. Also, for once I have to say "listen to Phil." Private Message Phil, I'm sure he would share his knowledge. A complete Z11 engine sold at the Kissimme auction in January for a little over 10k I believe....hell of a deal I thought.
