Nobody should buy an "RS" Z28 unless it has GM of Canada documentation of originally being an RS or MacNeish inspection verifying an original RS option. Period.

That is a tall order. One may never own one!
I bought mine and never did the above. Just a good inspection and I have a nice RS Z.
I would be very careful trusting what McNeish says. I owned a car once he inspected after I owned it, and he said in his report that it was an all original body panel car with one repaint. I had the car repainted, and both quarters and fenders were replaced.

Relying only on a document Canadian or otherwise which represents how a car was build/configured 50 years ago is not adviseable.


Many cars have been rebody/ faked based on documentation. Don't get me wrong its great to have but its only one piece of the puzzle . Ownership history and physical inspection are also critical to confirm cars pedigree.


There's a wealth of information out there and many member on this site as well as others can help and may be able to perform an inspection.


Painted engine, pad blurry pics, lack of documention and history are red flags ....
