General Discussion / How much does a Jerry Mac Neish certification add to a cars value?

« on: January 11, 2012, 02:07:16 AM »

I have a 1968 z28 none matching numbers drive train, the motor is a MO block from another z28, transmission has been replaced, rear axle is a non posi 12 bolt  looks original, this car has all the markers of a z28 but its undocumented.
 
The question is if I get Jerry to Certify the car how much does it add to the value of the car?
If anyone has been through the process please let me know your feelings.

General Discussion / What rare part would you like to see a top quality reproduction produced?

« on: January 05, 2012, 10:35:23 PM »

After I finish my current career,  I would like to consider making some top quality reproduction parts for 1st gen Camaros. I am just curious as to where the community feels there are needs. I have read post where  Jerry M. is not happy with dash pads, I think there may be a void in n44 components,ie knuckle arms, drag and pit man arms. I recently was told that the deluxe seat emblems have been discontinued.
So the question is what top quality part would you like to see made?

General Discussion / Are there any websites that display correct first gen bolts?

« on: November 17, 2011, 05:29:14 PM »

Looking for a website where you can search by bolt application (ie. 68 hood bolt) so you can see what the correct bolt looks like along with specs including. color, length, markings etc.
This would greatly help in assembly of basket cases
