Who Owns This 1968 Z/28
 

Some scammer is trying sell this car to me for 27,500.00 LOL. Back to reality, what can a nice 1968 Z/28 be bought for these days?

One the same year and color was for sale at near $70,000 not long ago and sold quickly and was worth every penny. Check the for sale section about six weeks ago.

I have a buddy that has one for sale. Nice 68.

Pretty sure that’s my car

Heres the message the supposed seller sent me:

Hello Mark,
Sure. What is your location?
It is an extremely nice and very rare 1968 Camaro Z28 Survivor car - 1 of 7,199 Z28’s produced in ‘68. The car retains its Original factory Ermine white paint, original born with solid lifter 302 engine, original born with M21 close ratio transmission, original born with 3.73 positraction rear end and many other parts - such as The rare Cowl Plenum Air Cleaner, original alternator, original Holley carburetor, original 15x6 rally wheels, functioning smog system, 5-blade fan w/original clutch, etc.

Please let me know for more questions. I have also attached more pictures.


Unbelievable what goes on on this internet!

If there was ever a guy that deserved a beating....

That email does not read like a typical foreign scammer, it's even worse because it is well written and uses all the correct key word lingo....scary.

$27500, call his bluff and show up.

Maybe it’s $72,500 and it’s a typo or seller is dislexic ?

Call the cops. Let them use your computer and set up a sting.

I'm dyslexic, but I don't think I would miss a typo of 50k on the price...:no:

Well heres the latest correspondence from the scammer to me.......



"We can talk here and I'll answer as soon as possible. The thing is that a buyer from San Francisco was very interested and I agreed to close the deal with cash on the delivery transaction. The day the vehicle arrived there, he told me that his loan was not approved and the deal is off. The car is now with the shipping company in San Francisco, CA. The good thing is that they also provide escrow protection for long-distance transactions. Basically, you get to inspect the vehicle before the deal is closed and I'm protected from buyers who don't actually have the funds to make a purchase.
Please let me know for more information.
Best,"




Can you believe this?

Absolutely, he thinks he has you nibbling on the hook and is trying hard to set it. As Lynn said, get your local police involved and they can track this scumbag down...:biggthumpup:

I guess he wanted you to send the money and he would ship you the car. Ha!

Suggested reply:Great. I'm in SF. How do I get to inspect the vehicle?

Kurt, you can come to Minnesota to my garage if you wanna see it ! 😂

He probably reads the forum, he likes to use "born with" in front of everything :grin:

This guy is most likely a foreigner. They have stepped up their game and just copy other similar ads written by legitimate sellers.
Its just a scam to get you to even put money down to hold the car that isnt there. Any way to get money.

Is that the same car that was sold at Boulder Motorcars???

Mine was in Texas when I bought it, originally a California car

On a related note, if someone keeps track of '67 Z/28s, maybe this car that just sold is one? 4L I think?
