Sam,

This car and the buildsheet in question is being discussed at Team Chevelle HERE

Thanks Bruce. Good heads up. Sounds like the BS is "BS". Not sure why anyone would try to pull such an obvious fast one like this. Actually, I do know why, but am not sure why they did such a poor job of it. I found it odd that with "the finest L78 in America" or whatever he said that the irrefutible paperwork was not mentioned in the text.

Yep Sam...the almighty $$ will lead people to do really stupid things...I still think your L78 Chevelle is way cool and there's no doubting your documentation.

That Build sheet is Homemade all the way.You can buy them alone from the reproduction market,and the type Fonts are all wrong.Even the description formating is wrong for a Leeds Plant.

To bad,as it & the seller are getting in the way of a rather nice Chevelle that should stand on it's own,after some minor detail work.

Thot as much. Concur with Rick's assessment that the car stands on its own merit pretty well. The bogus BS shrouds it in speculation. Partial VIN by Oil Galley is nearly impossible to restamp due to the roughness of the metal. No pictures of this or the stamp pad or the cowl. Original cowl would authenticate this car as an SS as 72 was a paint that only the SS could have. Oh well.

Vins are routinely removed and restamped by the oil filter. A professional/quality Job is virtually undetectable.

Remember my earlier question?:
"Yesterday, I requested a clear photo of the BS and cowl tag be forwarded to me. "

His response:

"i sam i would just come here and see the car thanks"



That is yet another nail in that coffin.
