Re: 1969 Camaro L89 with JL8 option at Kissimmee
 

One of the "inspectors" at BJ doing camaros and chevelles is an expert for those cars. He told me a year ago he was doing it and pretty excited to get the job. I think they are actually doing some authenticating

Re: 1969 Camaro L89 with JL8 option at Kissimmee
 

Same thing i heard from one hired by BJ. Not a leo, but a known certifier in the community. He didnt mention issuing any certs, but more looking for obvious issues on behalf of BJ. I wonder if he looked at this car as he is a Camaro specialist.

I would think this opens BJ up for more scrutiny as they possibly had the car looked at by an expert, and as a buyer Id want to know those results before bidding.

How could any potential buyer think that was an original block stamping? Looks like it was done an hour ago. Way too crisp and sharp.

Barrett Jackson has hired Jerry MacNeish (Chevrolet), Jim Mattison (Pontiac), Kevin Marti (Ford) and Dave Wise (Mopar).. to help verify cars

I personally saw first hand at this years auction a Blue 1970 Chevelle LS5 Convertible that was listed as numbers matching with documentation and after it was inspected the new description read RECREATION.

I think if the consignor list it as numbers matching with paper work the car get looked at a little more closely

I guess intelligent sarcasm can be taken the wrong way right John? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

The block is an obvious restamp and the surface looks prepped by a belt sander and hand files.
