Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

Guys, Roy Sinor is the National Judging Chairman for the NCRS. He deserves every courtesy that we can extend to him.

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

There are a few known Z16's, the BJ ad does not state who's car this is or was. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

Guys, please help Roy out if you can. He's helped me out tremendously in the past when I've needed him. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

1969z280, Why do you have a problem with that? Seems like an honest question to me. Man, Thats like the rudest welcome I've ever seen on any Forum.

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

Sorry if I offended you but yes it is the first post, like cars lots of them, don’t spend much time on discussion forums don’t know how to search it or even where to post the question but thought I would ask for some help. I would extend the same courtesy to any other member if I could help. Yes I am the Roy Sinor involved with NCRS, but more importantly I am Roy Sinor a guy that likes muscle cars!

Sometimes we speak or type before we think things through. It is nice when you see someone that recognizes the error or their way and is big enough to post an apology.

This is not the first time I have seen like type comments on many Internet boards. People sometimes feel that these web site should be a closed social club for a select few to banter on. We sometimes forget what truley DRIVES these web sites and keeps them alive and that is new members, questions, and comments.

I often will join a web site to ask a question of what I hope will be answered by people knowledgable on that particular site, and never again return. Sometimes we are just curious about something but have no interest then pursuing it any further. We should not critize people for it. That is the beauty of the Internet the info is out there.

How true, I once joined a Buick website (really could not believe there was a site for buicks!!) to ask about a dual quad wildcat 'vert that was for sale locally and apparently they had been talking about this car world wide for months!! Luckily I found out it was a mish mosh of parts!!

Thanks Algore for inventing the internet!!

"No expense was spared in its beautiful restoration"

Odd that they don't mention history or owners since these cars are pretty much all known. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

I just got the BJ catalogue and the only thing I can add is that the Z16 is from the collection of Louis "Kayo" Erwin Jr. of Chattanooga Tn. He has consigned 20 cars to the auction. Out of room.

For those that don't know, The info in the B-J descriptions on line are typically what you find on the 8 1/2 X 11 card on the windshield of the car during the auction. It is a limited description due to space and are generally highlights the seller has given the auction company.

However, at the auction itself the sellers are allowed to have additional information on display as well as mirrors under the car, etc. just as you see at car shows. For REAL buyers that attend the auction with intentions of buying they usually have all the info they need to make a decision. OTOH, there are also a good number of cars there with nothing other than the window card and no seller around you can identify to ask. Sometimes this is because the car may have questions the seller doesn't WANT to answer, sometimes a dealer with many cars there and is also buying many cars and has no time for it, and sometimes it is just inexperience of the seller.

Very true.

And a lot of the informatiom and description about some of the cars are completely false.

B/J only goes off of what the seller says and states about the car.

You still have to be careful!!

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

We sold a couple of cars at BJ last year and my boss is a BIG spender with them over the last few years. Even though we were sure 99% sure on the authenticity of a 68 396 SS Impala convertible that came from a well known collector a few years ago, they would not allow us to list it as a SS in there info. as we did not have any doc.s or positive proof.They have changed their attitude in the last year of so and even have Kevin Marti on hand at times cking out the Fords.Maybe other experts wandering around cking as well.Tired of law suits and complaints I would guess.

Re: Z16 chevelle at Barrett-Jackson
 

Kayo is a good guy, and friends with Dick Bridges who also knows his cars. Roy, I am sure if you find Kayo at the auction and ask him questions he will be happy to answer them. I have no relationship to the car or the seller, but have dealt with him in the past and been pleased.

Best regards,
Colin Comer
