You're oh so correct, syr. That's why I said "the upper end" which, half way between $30 and $130-something, would have you on the + side of the "upper end". As to how much it cost to do, well, as a Project Car for a muscle car magazine, it cost a lot
less than you might imagine... Parts suppliers and restoration specialists use those venues as "advertising", which I'm most appreciative of...
BTW, 1997 Camaro SS LT4 Number 1 (earlier Serial Number than Rick Hendrick's supposed #1; known as C-001), was for sale last year @ $75,000, pristine, with 4,000 miles. Not a nibble, not an offer... That car stickered for almost $40,000.
2 '70 Stage 1 Converts have recently changed hands...the "cheap" one brought $100,000+...
As mentioned, "appraisal in hand, and insurance in place".
