&quot;...and now, of course, the real original ZL1 engine.&quot;

before it only had the ORIGINAL engine, now that ORIGINAL engine is <span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic"><span style="text-decoration: underline">REAL</span></span></span>

so, the story tellers before were lying? </div></div>

They believed they had the orig block when it was selling at Barrett-Jackson.<span style="color: #FF6666"> A SYC member had a block that was acquired from Lamar and were told it was from # 51. </span>I put Reggie and the member together, the block was bought and repaired. At Barrett-Jackson <span style="color: #FF6666">a attorney called and said he had a client that had the orig block and that he had bought it from Lamar in the 1970's.</span> Reggie then stopped the sale of the car to sort it out. <span style="color: #FF0000">He called Lamar and Lamar said he had several blocks for the car that GM had given him. He also said he still had the orig. one in his shop.</span> Reggie then bought and repaired that one. He as spent a ton of dough trying to do the right thing. If there is any fault it is with Lamar.. </div></div>

Wow...so who's on first? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]
