Re: LS-6 on Ebay
 
Exactly!!!

Try to look at it this way. You find your coveted Nickey Camaro buried in a barn, but you don't know if it's real, and the price is within your range. Where will you go for help?

If you come here with some pics, this group will nit-pick that thing to a gnat's asss for you - for free. How thankful will you be if they spot some very small 'nit' that disqualifies the 'barn find' as authentic?

That's why we analyze the cars against the claims made about them, it has saved a lot of people a lot of trouble - someday it might just save you!

Re: LS-6 on Ebay
 
When I found mine, I was scared to death! Fortunately the car had been discussed a bit here. I have been into cars far a long time but not in the last 10 or so years so I was lagging behind on all the things that are important now which were not as important back then (builds, details etc.)
When I started to look a friend of mine who is a member here told me "theres some real smart dudes there that will help you out" so I signed up. The bottom line is from what I knew and from reading the comments here I got the confidence to "pull the trigger on the deal" I was scared, and my car was not the price of some but, still not chump change to throw down on a gamble, I got a great car and you guys helped me. I welcome people to pick it apart then I know what is right and what is wrong.

Just my $.02 fro the other side of the fence

Thanks Guys!!!!!!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ouguysrock.gif

Some real good responses in this thread. When I started looking for a 68 Z28 quite a few years ago, I had MacNeish looking for me too. I told him how important it was to me to have factory paperwork on any car I bought. He told me back then that paper wasn't all that important, as it could be and was being faked. I am glad I listened to him, as my L78 car does'nt have any paperwork. Real born with drivetrain, but no paper. Which is fine by me. Much easier to fake paper than the engine block and stamp.

I'm sorry for anyone that I offended. You guys provide a great service on a great forum and website. I hope that if I ever do find that Nickey Chevrolet in an old garage on the Northside of Chicago, you guys won't chew my head off and bring back up my posts.

I guess I'm just into my "day-two" type of cars and could care less about numbers matching on this and that, but I realize there is a lot of people who are into having everything correct and they have to worry about some assho??? out there who will scam potential high dollar muscle buyers by cloning paperwork and faking the high end type of muscle cars,and this site no doubt will know what to look for and what is real. I know I would be pissed if I bought what I thought was an SS (SS anything) and it turned out to be just a Plain Jane. So once again, I'm sorry to anyone that I offended.

Dennis
