Talk about a mistake!.....Bill S


Not the one I was thinking about. BUT a convert, I don't think so. Never heard the "talk" on NCRS website when I was there about ""more"" ZL1's hiding in the weeds.
Haven't had the interest in Corvettes in the last 6-7 years, moved to full sized Chev restorations....

Looks a bit flaky to me.

Agree. That's a fake tag, as well as the one on the 69 Azure Turquoise L-78 car.

A really impressive collection, but as has been stated, not a lot of attention to correctness or realness of many of the cars.

Would like to see pics of all the numbers on the 67 Z/28.

Jonesy 12-28-2020 02:58 AM

That for sure is a fake tag. One of the obvious ones!

Anybody have any info on car A13? 1970 Z28, black/black. Lots of little details to fix & a bit tired looking, but anybody here know drivetrain details?

Thanks

Don't know a thing about it. 3 pics. That's it. Not much more in the description. Some odd things stick out; looks like a spray painted booster, someone chromed the fender braces, and a really odd GM sticker on the upper alt bracket. I am guessing a few more minutes of "where's waldo" would yield some other issues.


It is a shame these cars weren't vetted in advance of the auction. They should just be represented for what they are. I have already commented on two fake tags on pretty high end cars. Hope no one gets burned. Museum is still open to the public between now and the auction, but I don't know how closely one would be able to inspect. I fear that there will be no bargains given the publicity and the notariety of the current owner. I mean no disrespect to the owner. Just the fact that he acquired all these cars is impressive. Just wish it were handled differently. One day is set aside for pre-auction inspection.

Having said that, given the description below, I would take it to mean this car does not have its original engine, but does have a CTB suffix motor, either a real one or a restamp. Just can't tell.

I would also take "Re-finished in Tuxedo Black with white sport stripes" to mean it is a color change.

Also don't know if "rally sport split bumper" means it is a true rally sport, or if it just got the split bumper.

Anyone going to be there? I have only seen one post from a member here indicating he is going; and I know he would like some help vetting two or three cars he may be interested in.

This is it for description:


350/360 HP "CTB" suffix engine
4-speed manual transmission
Power brakes
Power steering
Bucket seats
Center console
Rally Sport split bumper
Re-finished in Tuxedo Black with white sport stripes
Dual exhaust with headers
Original Protect-O-Plate
Original vehicle invoice

BTW, I know this sounds crazy, but my favorite vehicle in the auction:

The 57 Cameo in tropical turquoise.

Billohio 12-30-2020 09:23 PM

I really like that Cameo too. Sharp truck.
You cant see it good but is the wiper motor on A13 for a non RS car?

bergy 12-31-2020 01:20 AM

Thanks Lynn. I’m going to the auction. I live 60 miles south of there in the winter. Hopefully they will let me inspect the cars closely.

Lynn 12-31-2020 04:47 PM

I am sure it will be a lot of fun. Post pics when you can.
Would like to go, but I am not in a position to buy anything right now.
