I was going to try and keep my Z original, but I think that plan has gone by the wayside. I have a couple of original and hard to find parts, but have no clue what they are worth. Looking for some help/advice on the values.
Green bag that the locking keyed lug nuts came in.
4 perfect 1991 ZR-1 rims and the original Gatorbacks, unmounted.
Stock exhaust.
I know there is more, just have to go through all the stuff that came with the car.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Also, if anybody knows of a good source for headers and cats for these belowed cars, I'm all ears.
1996 Red/black/black LT4 convertible with a couple of mods
1969 Camaro RS/SS 427 Convertible
1996 Yellow/black/black LT4 convertible (1 of 11 made)
1995 ZR-1, white with red interior (1 of 13 made)
stainless works has headers and cats available now , but after having bought a set of them for my second zr1 i wasnt happy with the way they were made and fit . when i got my first zr1 i got a set of jeals from corey henderson ,he now has the jeal jiggs so he can build these headers they make a 1.5 mile an hr difference at the drag strip as i tested them both on my blk zr1 . they fit better and corey i am sure would stand behind his product . he isnt fast but ,i know when you get them you would be very glad you got them from him . dont know how to do the link thing . he owns henderson performance tech. in new braunfels tex .hope that helps

Mod that sucker!!! I think headers and corsa's sound great.
Ridiculously, that little green bag is probably worth more than the wheels or exhaust.
Well, maybe not really, but I bet it'll be close.
I'd be interested in the green bag once you figure out what you want to sell it for.
It's worth what someone is willing to pay you for it. In regards to being worth a ton of $ or in the same league as wheels and/or exhaust - no way.
You can Top Flight all day long in NCRS without green bag, valve caps, tire bag etc. They are simply not worth that many points if you are missing them.

My thoughts are that you should modify the car so that you maximize your enjoyment. And then drive it as often as makes you happy. When I bought my Quasar Blue ZR-1, it was in the era when "going back to stock" was still important. I spent extra money to have the take-off stock shipped to MD so I could store it in case I wanted to reinstall it. Now I know that was a waste of time and money.
The value of the car is measured by the fun I am having driving it and working on it. A modified car that has been "put back to stock" will not be worth much in the for-sale market for a long time.

I've already done bits and pieces of all that:
Exhaust-Done
Top end port job-Done
4.10 rear gears-Done
Tune and chip-Done
The headers and cats are next, but I am getting quotes of closer to $2K...don't want to spend that much right now as we just bought an Escalade and I'd ratehr pay it off sooner than later.
