That is probably the 68 z which has been discussed in another thread.I believe it is advertise on cars on line as "alert# matching"

yes paceme I think that is the car that they were talking about what scares me as the price of these cars gos up how far will people go to clone a car? will get to the point where you just can not tell if its real or a clone they will get better in restamping remanufacture trim tags pop plates
the only wat to stop it is to list all known vin numbers and if they go as far to try to remanufacture a vin plate then they will have gone to far and be shut down and go to jail end of story any one who sells fraudulent cars gives the hobby a black eye
as for me its about the love of these cars and not so much about the money

That is the car. Very poor stampings on the engine and trans, especially the trans. The word is out on this board and just about everywhere to stay away from that dealer. Word of mouth is either your best or worst advertisement.....................RatPack......... .....

I will be going to Future Classics this weekend now that everyone is talking about them again. I have to see what they have new. I have to admit, they do get some good looking cars there. CHUCK, I will check out the 70 Camaro L78 car you were asking about. I'll let you know. I am about an 45min-1 hour from them so its not a big ride.
Has anyone seen some of the stuff at that TRM Classic's place? I called on a car they had recently. It was a Dusk Blue X22 SS car that he was "making" into an RS. He sent me pictures and the car didn't even have the correct RS taillights and back up lights. The engine compartment was a horror show. He also said he will send me a picture of the under side after he is done "blacking it out". He wanted high $20's for a half assed restoration with a non-original motor. That is frightning. Now that sounds like a quick fix and sell job to me! I just noticed that he still has the car but now took the RS package back off and is selling it as a COPO clone. I wish I can just "black out" the under side of my cars and get high $20's! WOW! Talk about trying to make a buck! OH, and Hello Paul, Welcome! - Jon

Shor, The screws that were used on that particular trim tag were sheetmetal screws that you would find in your local hardware store. I don't know the history of the car but when you see something like that it just makes you wonder. Camaroking, Your up on things! That car was traded in at Future and a friend of mine ended up with the car and I purchased it a week after he had it. I sold it at Atlantic City Feb 2001. It was restored by Bob Harris and it was a Gold Spinner car. KP
