97 z28...good idea? Guys I got a 97 z28 that blew a head gasket about a year ago, and it has been sitting every sense. Now I have the money to fix it. Local shop has quoted me a price to rebuild the motor back to stock at 1,800 and they will provide a 1 year warranty. The car itself has 150,00 miles on it.
What you think guys, what would you do? Odds are I am going to be open to selling it when I get it fixed.

Yeah I need to find out exactly what is included in the rebuild. The car is in good shape, but the clear coat on top is peeling so definitely will need a paint job. Maybe I would keep it I was doubting it. I am just looking at it as I am not going to find another car that will be in good shape for 1,800 dollars.
BTW, what would be a good recommendation for a cam and roller rockers?

I know in my area, that car completely stock with decent paint and interior will sell for $5k all day. (Assuming it runs good and cleans up real nice) I had a black 97 Z28 that had 100k miles, but had great paint, leather, ss hood/ spoiler & 11" tt2 wheels, and all bolt ons. That car recently sold quickly for 8700. I've sold a ton of these cars from 93-02 T/A or Camaro for many years now.
