Howdy,

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-Trucks...A1%7C240%3A1308

I can't believe someone wants to pay >$20k for this thing.

I _really_ can't believe that doesn't meet the reserve.

It really depends. How good the storage was is just part of the equation. I think you can expect anything. My neighbor just got an 1100 mile 1970 Z28, it had not been run in years. He fired it up for me (a second or third fire up) and it did have a slew of issues (bad dist), starting with a leaky radiator. He put some extra oil in it as a precaution and it was indeed smelling of oil and a bit smokey out the pipes! Now this car is a real treat of history, unlike our poor 3rd gen Camaro here! This car was kept in storage pretty much until now by the original owner, looks almost brand new. It is weird to see a 70 Z28 with near perfect window glass, upholstery, and paint!
