I can understand owning a 67 L88 tanker and keeping it to yourself. If, on the other hand, you decide to tell the world you own an original low mile 67 L88 tanker it would seem prudent to be ready to prove the claim undeniably.
This 67 L88 factory tanker that is claimed here is bull [censored]. I will be forthright and magnanimous in my apology when proven wrong. Until then...it's Horse [censored].

All the original poster asked is what is it worth. He has his answer. He is under no obligation to prove what he has regardless of anyone else's interest in what it may or may not be.

What it is worth depends on what he has. What does he have?

As I said, he has his answer based on the examples others have provided here. The owner knows what HE HAS. He can figure it out from there. So he has no need to offer any additional info. Many people are very private about what they have and feel no need to to volunteer any additional info regardless of how nosy any of the rest of us are about the car. I respect the privacy of others in these cases.

I'm certainly not knowledgeable enough to comment on these Corvettes, except that such a machine is the ultimate Vette in my opinion. I also can't comment on whether this is all "smoke and mirrors" or not. I do know he posted the same picture in another thread back on February 24, 2009 essentially saying "He would love to have these cars". Who knows what is going on. I for one don't really care, but I'm always open for a good story or car find.

Who knows..Maybe they are his Dads ? In his profile he shows a pic of a RS Camaro. If you had one of the L88's wouldn't you show a pic of it ? Maybe his family does have a L88 but not a big tank car ? I remember when we booted a guy off of the site that was claiming to own just about every car that was in the Dave C collection. He was even showing people pics of Daves cars.

Like the guy with the new 69 Yenko Camaro with 200 original miles and new 68 Hemi car just cleaned up running in the 10's. We're still waiting for his arrival at the supercar reunion!

Is the pic he linked gone for everyone else too?.
I went back to take a another look at it as I wanted to look closer at the placard on the wall that noted a '67 Vin and options..
If the pic is gone did anyone else check it out and/or note if it was for a coupe or roadster?.

I think there's a good chance the guy may be for real!.
