The gary guy put in a retraction of his previous posts and the administrators locked the main post...right after I replied with my "law school exam question" description of the whole mess. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smirk.gif

anything over 3 months is not able to be viewed

SOME older auctions can still be viewed BUT you need the item number

Here is a pic of the VIN tag I saved off the other thread:

As for Jerry's report I dont remember seeing it on display with the car I may be wrong though, one thing Ive learned is just because they say in a cars description it has been inspected by Jerry or Galen our what ever guru you want doesnt always mean it has a good report.

Im sure some sellers list that hoping that the buyer will assume the car is good because and expert has looked at it and then let the unexpecting buyer find it out later when its to late.

I think its buyer beware and you have to do your homework on cars but I remember watching this car cross the block and Gary Bennett PUMPED the hell out of the car to the crowd as if he really knew the car..

I will be curious to see if the footage of that sale is included in the endless reruns over the next 3 months.

I don't know why I am following this perhaps its like stopping to look at an auto accident on the side of the road?

Its my understanding the original shell absent the identity tags was sold and the identity tags with the paperwork was sold at another time??? Then we are presuming they were never reunited?????????

Anyway, NJSteve I think despite the boilerplate consignment K the buyer is a buyer in good faith and if his funds have not been disbursed BJ can and should withhold payment to the seller pending the cloud being removed from the title? In this case I think the cloud can be removed by removing a fender and checking for the hidden heaterbox VIN? That would be best answered by a Camaro expert? The way I read the K, BJ doesn't waive liability for selling a car with an illegally transferred VIN once they are put on notice. Absent notice I think they have no liability? In this case it appears BJ is on notice the car may have the VIN and identity of another car and I think if I was advising them I would advise them to withhold the funds and put the funds in escrow. I would also advise them to just go out and pull the fender while this is removal is being videotaped and look for the VIN. The NHP would also do it while the car is still here. If no VIN or wrong VIN I would tell the seller to pick up his car and give the buyer his money back. It doesn't matter whether the seller was a good faith seller in due course he is stuck with the car. I know BJ doesn't pay their sellers for at least a month so the funds should still be there. If the car has been shipped it needs to come back to Vegas and NHP can investigate its identity.
What do you think?

It also seems to me when the car was being restored someone during this process would have looked at the hidden VIN under the heaterbox? How would that not have happened? Just wondering?

Bottom line this why I can call all the original owners of my three Camaro's I own. Camaro world is a very scary place sometimes. I need to talk to live bodies before I will buy a Camaro.

Owner history is a good thing. Like you Les, I have plenty on both my cars. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

Re: Barrett Jackson Las Vegas
 

I think what causes this case to be different is that BJ may be on notice that an issue as to the cars identity exists? Or at least we are inferring that BJ knows about the problem based on the other internet forums threads? It doesn't matter now in my opinion whether classicGary is real or not it appears from this thread, paperwork with the cars VIN was sold on ebay as well as possibly the body shell which is sufficient to prompt an investigation into the cars identity I would think?

If it is true Ron Pratt bought the car if I was BJ I would be working toward resolving this since he is one of their best customers. ClassicGary and his assertions may or may not be accurate and could all be fictious but it appears the shell and paperwork were sold on ebay I would think the buyer would want this thing clearly resolved? And quickly.
