70Z.... This just goes to show you great '69 Z28 will be paid a premium for... I would not mind owning Sam's, Darren's or Mr. T's Z28... No docs just means no docs... not much else.

Thanks for the kind words about my car. I hope your right about the value but in this case it doesn't really matter and I suppose that adds a whole other angle to this subject. You see, this car is an exact copy of the one I had as an 18 year old kid...my first "real" car.

But, unlike alot of you, I'm not a "car guy". I'm just a guy who owned a 70z as a kid who is in a position in life to have a few toys. And while I would never buy a car as an investment, per se, I am concerned about spending 50K on something that may only be worth 30K 2 years from now. Unlikely you say? Perhaps, but I sure don't feel I'm in the position to spot a fake like some of you might. So I need more reassurance. So, to that degree I guess all this paperwork, is it real is it fake crap ony matters to the next guy. In other words, if I'm not going to sell the car who cares? If I might sell it then thats another story. At least to me. I hope that makes sense.

It also doesn't help that there is a guy right here in town whose whole business model is based on building fake 69 ss/z28 Camaros. I've spoken to him and while he seems like a decent person he was quite clear that he could build me a car that was as "real" as I wanted. Whats really scary( at least to me) is he's building 10-12 cars at a time and has a years waiting list!

Hopefully were all on the same page now. I sure never meant to ruffle anyones feathers over this so consider my comments just simply the point of view from someone far less knowledgable than the average person on this board. Hopefully we would agree that this market needs people like me as well. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/laugh.gif
