Benny are you just assuming or do you have information about the auction? Looking at the bidding, the buyers seemed to be reputable and numerous.

Please don't put out a strong acusation with out merit.

Thank you

That R/T is a knockout---
That Carolina Blue Camaro keeps the variety going--Legendary Motors did a segment on a '69 SS 396 Chevelle in this color /black int--------------- looked -----IMHO

I called the phone number listed in the first auction and left him a message. Too bad there in no way to catch these scammers and put an end these things.

Guys,

Let's use some common sense here. Why would someone who had a rediculous bid of $148,000 for a 1 of 1 Z/28 end an auction 2 days early? Don't forget, the auction ended early with only $1,500 away from the reserve. You might say that someone offered the guy 10k more to end the auction early but having said that, if you were the seller, wouldn't you take the auction to the very end to see what you could get. Anyone here see the car or knows the buyer?
