looking at trading a 90 cherokee for this

https://corvallis.craigslist.org/cto/5623236749.html

im wondering what your average 280 is worth

thanks all     sb

What's a 90 Cherokee worth?

That's a nice looking car.  Probably rust-free if the history is correct.  There's a guy that had his 1978 Z for sale forever for about $8000.  Nobody would buy it.  Use one of those Craigslist conglomerators to see what Z's are selling of nationwide.  I think that there are a ton of people out there who never get their asking price though.

 Unless you LOVE the Cherokee trade it. Agree with Zed. Around here you could probably pick it up for $6,000 - $7,000 if the body is good. $4,000 - $5,000 if it's only fair. The Z will gain a lot more value over the years than the Cherokee. Now if it was an old Toyota Landcruiser, I might have to give it more thought.

I see pretty decent 280s for $5,000 and less but I agree, they're only going up.

That looks close to $3,000 maybe? 

Jump on that!

Definitely go for it. Your Cherokee will be worth very little soon.

According to zhome's color guides the only yellow Zs were special addition '77s.  It would be ashame if that's a real Zap Z and someone painted it teal.

 Good eye Cliff. I think you're right. The darker shade of yellow in the engine bay looks original. If decals are available, changing it back to a Zap would add to the value.

 

There is a lady that makes lots of decals for rc modelers. she advertises on some of the websites. If they are not available she can make them. If you decide to go that route let me know and I will try to get some contact info for you...

We have a tint shop here that can reproduce that type stuff.  He does the whole car wraps for business vehicles.

He needs the build date to be sure but I think the door tag probably has late '76 stamped on it so he thinks it's a '76?¿?

I've seen the zap stickers on a purple JDM G nose, although now I can't find it. I'm wondering if some of the JDM parts sourcers might help.
