Re: Barn find 69 Z28
Since I have known Chad one of his biggest dreams has been to locate and own an original Cortez Silver Z-28. Glad to see his dream finally materialize. Between this car and the Cortez LS-6 it looks like there will more sleepless nights helping him restore them. What are friends for, eh?
 He was recently accused of being a flipper on another site. In his defense I will tell you he could have stole this car (spelled cheap) but gave the owner twice his asking price. When I asked why, he told me he did not feel right taking advantage of the guy. He always wanted one and was prepared to pay it. I have to admit, I am envious of this guy. He sure knows how to find them!  Rick

I ran into Brad Pitt at the Spitfire,he want's to know when you are making it out west again for lunch.I told you were a man on a mission scouring the country unearthing cool rides,and pitched him for a new reality series based on "The bounty Hunter".It's going open with you busting down barn doors with doctors bag full of cash,a flashlight,and some silly putty!

I heard that he even pays up for T-Shirts! Congrats. [/ QUOTE ] I'll vouch for that.  Cortez Silver is definitely a killer color for a 69 Z, but then again, there's no bad color for them!
