The car you describe is very difficult to price. It will appeal to a very select few that can appreciate what has been done, provided everything functions as it should. I didn't read anywhere about condition. How can that be?
I have ZERO idea as to what has been put into that car as far as price and I hope you realize that owners only get a fraction of what they put into it back at re-sale time. The general 'rule of thumb' is that the owner will get back 25-33% of their original mod money back plus the cost of the car. Let's say the typical 140,000 miles Camaro Z28 will fetch a few grand. Now add that few grand onto the mods percentage. That will be a 'ballpark' figure for you. If $10,000 in mods (I'm just throwing a number out there) have been invested, that is about $2,500 on top of a well-used '96 Z28 price. Do not overpay!

Okay I get what you are saying . He told me there is about no more then 5k on the motor , Said that the motor was out of a 1996 Grand Sport Corvette , and it was completely rebuilt and his boss ( he works at a machince shop ) did all the machince work to it . So i dont know . He said he had about 8k under the hood in mods .
