My Seattle based cousin, "Bob" wrote me the following......

"There are only so many low mileage survivor type cars, and T.C.C. seems to obtain an abnormally high number of them compared to other dealers, or so he would like to have people believe. He has no magic source for obtaining them buying them at auctions and swap meets, and people answering his ads. He fakes and misrepresents cars, and that goes for the mileage. I have never seen an original paint car belonging to him. Two years ago at Hot August Nights he had a 65 Chevelle he was trying to pass off as being an L79 4 speed car with original paint for $34,900. He forgot to notice on the original window sticker it left the factory as a 6 cylinder 3 speed, only having front seat belts as an option. As for the paint it was bc/cc, way too nice for original lacquer, I sould know as I own two original lacquer paint cars. He also has or so he claims is a red 1967 Z/28, with a fiberglass plenum repop air cleaner for 119k, if it were a real car it would bring huge money at BJ, it's not there because it probably could be spotted as a fake. So the point I am trying to make, a true low mileage original car does not need complete paint, resprayed trunks, undercarriage and motors, like all of his cars have, if that's the case he can declare whatever mileage he feels like.... "
