I have seen some factory alloy wheels in at the parts counters of some dealerships. Boxed in factory packaging, made in China.

So, I guess that &quot;real&quot; Z28 owners will now be stocking up on spares, since they will be the only ones allowed to buy them, and then be selling the spare parts on ebay? It will be long after my lifetime before they become anywhere near collectible or in demand. Any doubts, look at all the zero mileage Corvette pace cars that were put away that can still be bought at or below what they originally sold for, still in the original wrapper.

I believe it's known as &quot;unfettered free-market capitalism.&quot;
