this guy down the road has a 69 z28 for sale body is extremely straight, so is interior, he's asking $11,000. Its got a 427/+-500 hp. M21 trans, is that a good buy?

It would be if it was a real Z28 but I have my doubts. A "clone" is okay as long as you don't buy it under false pretenses. I personally have a "clone" and I love it as I am not worried about keeping it original. Check out this site more and it will help distinguish what it is.

If you decide not to buy it let me know as I might be interested. I'm in the Atlanta area also.

If it still has the 12 bolt and the trans is the # matching not a bad deal. It will cost you around 4,000 to get a correct 302. The value in these cars are in the correct parts for the car very expensive if they are not thier when you buy it

If it's a real Z28 with the original transmission and rear end I would say it's a good deal even if it doesn't have the correct DZ302 because the 427 is worth good money. Good luck...
