My car has a 4.11 posi rear end. The part was added by a previous owner. Now a guy I know wants it for his 69 camaro. He is offering an open rear replacement and cash.

My car is a driver and I don't need a steep posi rear end. What is the value of the part?

THANKS

Need some more information. Is it an original 8.2 BOP rear with mono-spring perches specific to a '67?

And being a 4.11 rear, is it made of nodular iron (signified by the capital "N" embossed on top of the center section just behind the pinion)?

Or is it just some generic rear that somebody put a 4.11 gear set into?

Not sure about the mounting. The car was also updated with multi-spring suspension.

Also not sure if it is a 4.11 or 4.10. It is something close.

I do know it is a 12-bolt and the guy who wants it says it is a "chevy" rear end.

If it is a 8.2 BOP rearend the gears won't fit in a 69 Camaro 8.2 10 bolt.

I was hoping it was a BOP rearend because the Chevy guy would be out of luck but I might have been interested.

FYI, On ebay there is a 4 series, 12 bolt posi carrier that is going for $200 without gears:

A first gen multi-leaf 12 bolt is quite uncommon, bordering on rare. If I remember correctly, they only came in '70-'71 big block Novas. How much cash is he offering? Did he approach you?
I wouldn't be surprised to see a complete set-up like yours go for around $1000 on Ebay.
If you're thinking of taking his offer, maybe you could offer it to the guys here first for the same price.

Sorry to be so bad about background information...

The car has a chevy drivetrain: 350 (not stock) with a powerglide. A previous owner used it to street race.

I want to change the gears and switch to a 2004R to improve highway drivability and MPG.

I was going to just regear the rear, but since I don't need the posi feature, I thought the swap could help pay for the 2004R transmission.

Besides Nova's, I though 12-bolt's were standard for big block 1st Gen Camaro's, too?

Still, they are indeed hard to find these days.

I think $1,000 + for a 1st Gen Camaro, Nova 12 bolt. You might be better off putting it on ebay. I have seen them go for close to $2,000!

Chevy 12 bolt rearends were installed in 67-69 Camaro's with all Hipo packages and mandatory for Z-28. And they could be special ordered on any Camaro. They fit into firebirds with only a U-joint change and the Firebird rearend will fit in the Camaro with the U-joint change. It will fit 67-69 Camaro and 66-67 Nova. The 70 and up Camaro rearend is about an inch or two wider.
The 67-69 rearends bring very high dollar espicaly if it is a true 4 series possi and not a 3 series with a spacer.
Like the others have said, it should be worth around $1500-$2000 and his open rearend. Unless he is a good freind. Then what ever you feel comfortable with.

eBay it, it will go high now. Sky is the limit.

i sold a 69 camaro 12 bolt carrier with no axles or guts for 275.00 to a buddy of mine.the only thing they are good for is a car that it came with originally or the race track.not necessary for street use.

67 and earlier Nova's had a shorter rear. 68-79 Nova same as 1st gen Camaro. 68-71 Novas also used the 12 bolt for 350 and big-block. The following is a very good source for Nova axle info.
