Re: Ebay POP
I have been in the restoration business since 83 as my full time profession. 80% is NCRS Bloomington Gold work. The only orginization that has a judging standard that comes close is the Through bred (SP?) for mustangs. The NCRS is the only orginization that has detailed judging manuals for each year car and those manuals are updated regularly. The hours of research is staggering.
ASLO they have printed materials to help educated people on restamps, fake paper work and trim tags. I have asked many time for help to ID a camaro trim tag or get a data base for GM stampings and the answer is always the same BS "we don't want the people faking the tags to get better." That don't cut it. If folks would have put the info out the fake tags would have been done. They did it for vettes and now everyone can tell a fake tag!!!
Also the corvette hobby has always been 10-15 years ahead of the rest of the GM muscle cars. So if the GM car guys are smart they should take the best from what the vette guys have to offer and put it to use.
Like allowing for factory documented CE block cars beng able to get top honners instead of promoting restamping. I have lots more to say on this subject but will stop there.
