No bowl vent on the Z/28 carb.

And he didn't bother to date the DZ carb or the rear axle as Kurt mentioned. But I guess all in all he seems to be pretty much in the know. He kept mentioning how things could be looked up on the internet and I think we all know he's spent a lot of time on CRG!

I didn't get past this exaggerated statement.
"Discover the unparalleled rarity of the 1969 Camaro Z/28"
Guess he's never heard of the '67 Z quantity.

Wow, tough crowd here. Parker is trying to build a YouTube channel. I like his videos. He reports on many different types of cars but seems to gravitate towards first gen Camaros. He seems to be about 99% accurate with the info he provides. Needs to polish his delivery a bit but he is getting better. Nice to see a younger guy interested in first gens. I think his channel and parting/flipping are his main job. Why would you call him a clown? Or a scammer? You want to see real clowns, check the Facebook first gen forums.

Well now I know Chevy put the tall rear bumper guards on so we can push the cars off the race track.

I watched a Dennis Collins YouTube video where he claimed the tall bumper guards were "incredibly rare" on a 69 Z/28.

Just proves that you can't be an expert in everything.

I agree, there are a LOT of clowns on fb. BUT, it doesn't diminish the fact that he is stating incorrect information as though it is fact in his vids. Millions of people will see those and believe what he says as fact and start repeating it. There is waaaay too much misinformation already on the web, to the point that many people have no idea WHAT to believe anymore. I have nothing against him and he does come across as a decent person. If he wants to build a reputation as a credible source of information, he NEEDS to know the facts and stick to them, not spew his observations and conjecture as facts.
