Re: Buyer Beware
[ QUOTE ]
I understand all points of view. The seller should be as forthcoming as possible, the buyer should be as wise as possible, but after all this is an auction. BJ should not inspect cars, potential buyers should. Heck they are posted on the website for 4-6 mo. prior to the auction. You can dig up info on a interested car if you really want to. I know we are all trying to protect the field and that's great, but ultimately its Buyers Beware.
Heck 2 yerars ago I was interested in a 68 Yenko Colin bought. I dug up who restored the car, called him, found out previous owners, etc. Lazy guys with big bucks buying "numbered so called cars" are getting what they deserve if they don't investigate.

Let me clarify the 68 Yenko #8021. I found the car to be legit, talked to Donahue and some previous owners. Great car and love the car. Glad Colin bought the car and has now taken it to an awesome level. Love the 68 Yenko's.
I was looking into at a 69 Z-28, JL8car in Hawaii that a member turned me on to in 05. I beat every bush until I found Dr. Milton Kim, one of the very important previous owners to verify the car. I took some time and determination and I'm far from a genius or have far less knowledge as 99% of the members here. These people who buy 6 figure cars with no homework, deserve what they get. Heck just come here and ask " Does anyone know this car" and someone here will have the answer - amazing site and the amount of knowledge here is incredible.
