This summer I footed 1500 dollars plus expenses to document a motion 1969 corvette, only to find out I was looking at a clone. I think the excitement of seeing a car with stripes and some decals overrides your sense of judgement. This particular car had sat in a garage since 1980 and had never moved.It didnt seem possible that someone could have cloned a car pre 1980, WHY? It also appeared to have original paint and hood, etc. etc. etc. The stories always seem the same. I know its real, I just know it! Joel told me that the SELLER is responsible for the verification, not the buyer.He is absolutely 100% right. If they know enough to say it is a motion car, then they are aware of the documenting process, and you would have to be a fool to not pay the 1500 dollars to triple the value of your car if you already know that it is one.I just walked away from another "motion" deal in CA. A person bought a so called motion nova in 1985 from a man in NJ. No documentation again. Looked good, but after I talked to the guy several times, he became skeptical and now thinks that the hood was added later, and that it might not be a motion car, just some lookalike parts. I wasnt so excited this time to open my wallet.
