latest Jim M. Chevy records rumor

[Unreal]

Tom, I'm pretty sure I already knew I could do a clone registry outside the SYC.

The guys with real cars like to argue that clones are a conduit for some poor unsuspecting buyer to be taken. I was just offering up a way to help minimize that concern.

We have been down this road before, everyone. When going to Volo a while back, after learning a 69 SS350 purchase from a local Illinois dealer was a fraud, there were 9 69 Camaro's there. Z's SS's ect. Ony ONE was what it was supposed to be. I asked one of the Thamm Brothers why the inconsistency, and he told me "Joel, people don't care about numbers, they just want it to look good and go fast."
I think it is safe to say that 95% of the public doesn't care about numbers or authenticity, the other 5% reside here. If the masses spend big $$$ on parts and such, we can only wait for the "book" to come out for the real players............ [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]

JOEL,
I DO BELIEVE THERE IS SOME TRUTH TO YOUR POST. HOWEVER, I THINK PEOPLE ARE TAKING MUSCLE CAR PURCHASES A LOT MORE SERIOUSLY BECAUSE THERE IS SO MUCH FRAUD AND DECEPTION TODAY BECAUSE THE VALUES OF THESE CARS HAVE INCREASED APPROX 20-25% OVER THE PAST COUPLE YEARS.I HAD A GUY COME AND INSPECT A 69 Z-28 I WAS SELLING AND HE SHOWED UP WITH A SPREAD SHEET OF ALL THE PART #'S. HE SPENT 3 HRS INSPECTING THE CAR AND PURCHASED IT AS WELL. HE TOLD ME THE 2 REASONS HE HAS BEEN LOOKING FOR A Z-28 WAS FOR AN INVESTMENT AND TO CURE HIS MID-LIFE CRISIS BEFORE THE PRICES GET WAY OUT OF HAND. JUST MY .02 CENTS.
