Default Gold/gold '68

This car has been for sale on the Detroit Craigslist for a few months - I think the latest ad was for $18k - and I've been contemplating making an offer...now that it's on ebay I guess that's no longer an option.

Anyway...I was looking to buy it for the gold interior, which my '68 Z/28 needs...but the car is too clean to part. It was sold at Hamilton Chevy, right across from the GM Tech Center in Warren, MI - their decal is still on the rear bumper.

This is about as clean as it gets for a lifelong SE Michigan car. It started life as a 6-cyl car but that wouldn't deter me too much.

You should buy it, swap out the gold interior to your Z, then replace it with a standard black interior. You win by getting the right interior for your Z, and this car wins by getting a black interior for easier resale in case someone wants to change the color (hope not). Win-win.

Car needs a set of Centerlines (3.5 front, 10 rear) and a 6-71 with two Holleys sticking out through that hood. Just saying.

I agree. Right now it's just your basic restomod IMO.

Tony,

Your 68 Z would look incredible, I think we have been talking about finding you an original Ivy Gold interior for close to 10 years. I do not believe I have ever seen a 68Z in Palomino Ivory over Ash Gold interior.
