A few weeks ago there was a post about all the jackasses that were being attracted to this board. While I believe this is a great forum for sharing knowledge, it's not meant to give credence to crap like this. What a freaking joke. Does he also have a lead on an original LS7 Chevelle?

[/ QUOTE ] well, while i wont make a comment about your extreme ignorace. i'll keep posting. i travel from the US to Lima quite a few times a year.. i wont buy a car like that without seing it first alright? i saw the car last time a few weeeks ago. at a first sight looks like a yenko, but again, i havent had much time to check it out thoughly, plus am no yenko expert. the paint is crappy, but mechanically is OK. how they get the parts?? easily, just buy them here and ship them to south america. duh!! if you have any doubt cars like this exist overseas check this wepage of the collection of this guy in lima http://www.museodelautomovilnicolini.com/ he owns about 64 classic cars in a private collection near my house in Lima, from a corvette stingray, to bel air, to ford T, auburn speedster, shelby gt 350, etc, etc. am going to south america in a few weeks to check the car, and if in fact is what I expect, my question again is, whats the paperwork to bring it to the US?? do anybody knows?? any surefire way to tell if its actually a yenko??? tips or hints would be greatly appreciatted. |

You know it's funny that this came up. I have several friends in Brasil. They have seen my car on visits to the US. I was talking to one during the week and he told me he went to a cruise night and someone had a 69 Camaro there. I was curious to find out how much something like that goes for in Brasil. He signed me up on a website for used cars. I logged in and didn't see any Camaros for sale but I found it interesting that when I typed in 69 Camaro for a search it turned up a "history of" page. Imagine seeing vintage pictures of a Bill Thomas drag car among other COPO cars. All the text obviously in Portuguese with a "COPO" and "Z-L1" thrown in here and there. Even references to Motion and Nickey Chevrolet of Chicago. Don't doubt it. Looks like they like American Muscle to.

What I forgot to mention is that while there seems to be an interest in the cars down there.. In your particular case there seems to be a strong odor of fish coming from you post. Proceed with extreme caution. Wonder how easy it was to get the parts to restore it 95%?

I would be careful too, but you never know, there is a HEMI Charger here in Norway that got here from the United Arabian Emirates, the car is for real, and very unmolested!

I agree with NEW,bee careful. But just because the car is overseas doesn´t mean it´s a fake. The -67 Plymouth Belvedere 4-door HEMI-car in Finland, is the real thing !
