Re: 92 5000 heritage z28 at barrett jackson

Hi Dagwood
Just curious why 1986 is "everyones least favorite year"?
I know one thing might be the high mount stoplight,as I just bought an 86 Iroc last fall,I have noticed this trend
Maybe I haven't read enough posts yet lol

Buyers are finally figuring out the 1LE downfall..... the lack of A/C
That is why I never wanted a 1LE .............but I'm sure there is a certain amount that it does not matter

Gotcha! I was very surprised also to see a non IROC or 1LE go for this kinda coin.

The high mounted third brake light, and 1986 also has a different cam in the TPI 305, making only 190hp. It was higher hp in 85, they dropped hp in 86, then in 87 they upped the hp again. Slang for the 86 cam is the "peanut cam"

Yeah, me too, never quite bought into the 1LE mystic. Out side the brakes, the G(92 cars are every bit as fun to drive without sacrificing A/C and we know livin here in Sunny SoFlo that A/C is as valuable as the key to start the car.
Biz, how many miles on that vert you are picking up? I may have missed it if you posted it.

Hi Vinney - I'd tell you but then I'd need to send out the hit man....
Seriously, it's under 30,000 miles and I'm buying it from the original owner who ordered it new

Re: 92 5000 heritage z28 at barrett jackson

That "not wanted" thing mostly exists on forums, like the vette guys saying a 64 is bad. Whatever!

BJ...never know. Right guy right time, enough drinks in him. Hard to base real life pricing on auctions.
Have my eye on a friends yellow 86 will be under 5k very sharp and mechanically new. Decent brown 84? on Cl palm springs right now reasonable $.
The old st rods, musclecars are slowly bringing less, 80s/90s stuff is getting more. Buying pool on old stuff seems to be shrinking as the old guys sell them off.

I saw that one...95k miles, repaint... Some other mods based on an old ad I found googling the VIN... If the ad was old could be over 100k

It did look clean...

That is really good money for a 100k mile repaint 305 Auto!
