"Survivor" a tough call especially for $50,000.

I’ve owned two Corvettes that have received the Survivor award at Bloomington with complete repaints. One was a ’67 coupe and one was a ’69 coupe. Both received Bloomington Survivor awards due to passing three of the four categories. I don’t know this El Camino or the seller, but a Corvette can Survivor with a repaint and I’m sure the new Survivor award follows the same guidelines. I believe that a car can still be called a Survivor with a repaint.

[/ QUOTE ]Not sure a repaint can be classified as a survivor. 50,000 just seems a little steep IMO for that particular truck. Thats all.

Someone other than the seller used the "S" word, but agree the # is in LS-5 territory. To me a true survivor has most of the paint that was applied during assembly, this is a very nice unmolested example with one repaint and would love to have it in my garage!

Bottom line is it's a classified ad. If you have a question or inquiry about buying it then e mail or PM the seller. If you don't like it, think its too much, or if doesn't meet your definition of survivor etc. That's fine, just move along.


I'm thinking it's about time we seriously look into making these classified ads "read only".
