Calm down fellas. He is getting his button pushed and is pushing back. The car is nice enough to be on the cover of a magazine and I don't think Hemmings has a policy of only featuring cars with real documentation. With the quality of work you do you might as well do it to a real car next time.

I didn't think Hemmings had a policy of featuring cars with fake documentation either.

Dog, They seemed to make that a theme of that issue. 3 cars (I think) were singled out as "never were, but could have been". A pretty lame theme for that magazine, in my opinion....

Verne is a well respected member of this site and has been around for a long time and helped MANY people. He voiced his opinion on the subject and nothing more. If you want any of that same respect I would be cautious how you comment further. JMO

If you guys have a problem with Hemmings putting this car on the cover maybe you should take it up with Hemmings. The headline says ONE OF NONE, THE NEVER WAS Z-28 RS CONVERTIBLE. If people can't read that and know that it is a made up car maybe they need more schooling. I think it is a great looking car. As long as Wagonman is up front with anyone asking about the car or he doesn't try to sell it as the real deal, I don't have a problem with it. How many of these high dollar COPOs are represented as 100% authentic when they are in fact rebodies. If the car in question here was one of these cars this thread would have never gone this far. The man has a right to do as he pleases with his car as long as he is up front about it. JMO
