Be honest about your car, especially on this site, because
you can't fool all the people all the time.

With a questionable buildsheet and a reproduction window sticker it would seem a good share of the rest of the narrative in the ad should be removed as well.

'70 Chevelles without real docs are called clones in most circles today.

Here is just one comment basically calling this guy full of sh... Alot of people jumped on me , but like I said, some people seem to enjoy bashing and calling people out on cars without the paperork.

Another guy also mentioned the window sticker being a repro...yeah it was, who cares, how many people saved them back in the day?

Alot of you guys know your stuff, there is no doubt about that. But did you some how forget to really enjoy a car? I don't know this dude selling it, and I do not know the car personally...so I won't pre-judge and question him or his car. But I guess it is easier to discredit and question someone, then to take their word for it.

I will NEVER be able to afford a car like this or any other high dollar muscle (Nickeys, Dana, Berger etc...) and I appreciate this site to look at these cars and learn from them, and I appreciate the knowledge, but like I said, unless you know the car is a fake, why question it?

And yes, I spelled "click" wrong, it is clique. So I look like a goof, who cares.

I think most see this thread as a discussion about an ad not about a car and its condition or correctness. It's a discussion about the car's pedigree. I don't like to see people get misled when it comes to their hard earned dollars. I guess as some have pointed out that in theory because a car doesn't have paperwork doesn't mean it is a clone is true. But with some models ('70 Chevelle SS included) the swindlers in this hobby have now forced the market to say if you don't have the paperwork then you don't have the real thing and it will be priced accordingly. This is one of those models that is guilty until proven innocent.

P.S. I also am not an expert but do enjoy all cars regardless of their pedigree or condition. I just know if I'm going to spend some serious money on a car that is advertised as such and such then you need to prove it to me. I don't see the proof, I see a misleading ad.

I think if you look at the thread you will see much has been learned. This information is valuable to prospective buyers. Also the owner/broker is also questioning the validity of the cars window sticker and buildsheet.

(supersport)
"Just checked in and glad to see the post. I am unsure of the validity of the build sheet(s) and the window sticker is for sure a reproduction that many cars have for show."

Now if you are presuming this is the earliest Lakewood LS6 1970 LS6 (owner/brokers words), then you will be called on it.

Based on what I have seen in the add or written in this thread I would call this a questionable car. Now based on what has been uncovered why would you not question this car. Hasn't this thread provided you with enough information to make your statement kind of weak.

"unless you know the car is a fake, why question it?"

This site is a very valuable tool for everyone in the hobby.

Explain. Just because I don't donate my money to this site, I should feel guilty? Just because I don't "pay-up" I guess you want me to shut-up.
