A new "spin" for sure but Jim Mattison is a great guy and what he's done speaks for itself. I don't know who she is or what she's done for our sport.

Very interesting info from Jennifer at GM........I hope it is not true. Why won't Jim just comment on the whole subject? Maybe people will stop asking if it is true.

I contacted vtntage vehicle services of canada last week on a vin and the subject came up and they told me that the old Chevrolet records do not exsist if so they would have them. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] But i have a lot of faith in Jims project and I feel that he wouldn't be wasting his time if they were none to be had. If anyone knows the Chevy paper trail it would be Jim M. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

There's information somewhere. How do you think some of the big collectors end up with documentation for rare muscle cars that didn't have it when they originally came up for sale? Be patient.

edit: Sorry, I didn't mean to drag names into this so I edited it out.

Floyd has GM docs on non-Canadian cars?

I have the original sticker off my 85 Fiero GT. Forgot to give it to the purchaser, when I sold it a couple years ago. Theoretically, if/when the Fieros become "Valuable" someone my contact me and get original GM documentation.
Floyd could do the same thing with old Camaros, but I doubt he has any deep connections to get info that Jim can't get.

I commend Jim in his quest to bring some sort accountability to this hobby. There is nothing like walking into the garage and looking at some cars, when you know they are what they are supposed to be. I have a 1970 LS5, but when I look at it I still wonder if it is. I got a copy of the buildsheet with it but in today's car world they can be made to represent anything....SOOO...MARCH forward Jim your quest will be enjoyed by many...Thank-you..Ian [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img]

At over 10,000 views, does this thread hold the record for most viewed? That is a lot of people reading, it would be safe to assume this thread has been discussed enough in other locations to have brought many to this site for the first time.
