Yes they will, with the newer hood of course.

Depends who buys it. I would only buy one with stock body parts on it. I have never seen a 69 z28 with 71 front end sell for as much as a 69 with everything origional (obviously nobody would do this anyway). Point being if somebody likes the newer body and doesn't want to pay the price for one they will buy yours. On the other hand sombody like me might prefer the origional body and look elsewhere. I don't think it will up or down the value just make it cater to a more specialized market.

I've also seen a 93-97 with a 98 front end.

I don't know why anyone would do it though. Personally I think the 93-97 front end looks bad ass compared to the "Chrysler Concorde front ends" of the 98+'s(no offense to any 98+ owners).

first of all i think (my opinion) that the 93-97 look better than the new chrysler concorde looking 98-03 camaros. 93-97 look much more intimidating with the dark black around the headlights and the pointed front bumper cover rather than the rounded front end....of course i have had a lot to drink tonight too so i could be talking out my ass??

Where I live I've seen a 96 model with front LS1 face

changed the sides and front bumper plus the hood..

It looked just like the LS1 only one thing diffrent is the tail lights

96 is diffrent but as for 97 like mine is the 30th ANV. has the same tail lights
