I didn't ask which car would bring more work in for the owner, rather which car is the most valuable.

It would have to be a "real" car like an original Max Wedge, Thunderbolt, Hemi car, 440-6, Z28, L88, etc.

My vote would be the 67 Z first and Bennet's 62 383 2x4 car second.

Hey, Overlooked car that would be worth quite a bit.
David Walther's 69 Camaro. That's an original Z-28 car too. Still has the T-3 Headlights in it.

Re: The most valuable stocker running at Indy.
 
The only problem with the Wenzel or Walther cars, and probably the Max Wedges, Hemis and such, is that collectors that will pony up the big bucks want bumper to bumper originality, and are completely hung up on "numbers matching" crap. I would be amazed if either of the Z owners still have the OEM engines and transmissions. They probably broke that stuff decades ago.

No factory 383 2x4 B=bodies in '62. Paper car, long story. That engine was available in the Chrysler 300's that year though.

I respectfully disagree, the 62 Chrysler 300H was a 413 with inline 2 X 4bbl.
62 Chrysler 300 sport was standard with a 383 2bbl.

I was going off of the info given to me by the person who helped put the combo in the guide.

It was claimed to be a police car engine many many many years ago. No different than some of todays "Paper" combos.
