T Billigen is right just heard the camaro internet 3/16/02 show Jerry Mac Neish was on and said that a guy in Cal bought a car from a dealer in new jersey that has changed names and HAS a history of selling fraudulent cars he went on to say that that new owner did not have Jerry look at the car before he bought the car when he got the car the cars motor did not run right the brakes did not work and all the numbers were played with.now it will cost more money for a law sute than Jery whould charge to look at it in the first place he said that people should do there home work before looking to buying a car. show was great

I believe the car was sold at Atlantic was sold by the owner not the dealer. The level at which the car was cloned, would make it virtually impossible to detect. Broach mark and stamping fonts are reproduced perfectly now. The corvette people now call restamped blocks "restoration blocks". I doubt the "experts" could have detected this restamp...they have been fooled before!

yes paceme I think that is the car that they were talking about what scares me as the price of these cars gos up how far will people go to clone a car? will get to the point where you just can not tell if its real or a clone they will get better in restamping remanufacture trim tags pop plates
the only wat to stop it is to list all known vin numbers and if they go as far to try to remanufacture a vin plate then they will have gone to far and be shut down and go to jail end of story any one who sells fraudulent cars gives the hobby a black eye as for me its about the love of these cars and not so much about the money Norm |

That is the car. Very poor stampings on the engine and trans, especially the trans. The word is out on this board and just about everywhere to stay away from that dealer. Word of mouth is either your best or worst advertisement.....................RatPack......... .....
