Question

[chevguy65]

I remember at least I think I do of a Z16 top of dash clock that sold on ebay for like five grand.

Does anyone remember this or have any information about it?

I have a friend that has one he is going to sell and I had some stuff saved when it was listed but lost it after a hd crash and reformat.

Thanks

No one remembers this?

How about the z16 radiator that went fo ten grand?

I remember the radiator.

IIRC, I don't remember what exactly there was about it that made it special to a Z16.

Was it filled with 20 dollar bills ?

I know they are high priced, but they are NOT Z-16 specific (the clocks). $5k for the clock (even NOS) just seems completely outrageous... ANY '65 SS with a factory tach should have the dash-top clock ( Pretty sure the clock was a standard feature of the Malibu/Malibu SS?).


Oddly, with the original clocks being so expensive and dificult to find, there are no plans for a repro. Even though it should be cheap/easy to do, look at all the other "replacement" guages and tachs, and even colsole clocks that are available now...

I'd LOVE to get one for my '66 ( pretty much the same as '65) as I have dash guages but no console... But I won't pay some ridiculous price for one...

AND made from solid gold

I'm not seeing this as ridiculous, considering the fact that LS6 dual snorkel air cleaner assemblies on ebay...the REAL ones...go for more than 5 grand.

I understand some NOS parts are unobtainium. But when it comes to building the cars we love I'm not a purist. I also know there are many who are and are willing to shell out the cash.
