Original paint.... is he kidding?
This guy did the right thing by investing in cars when he did, but either he's dumb or playing dumb when it comes to his cars.

I don't think it was available till '69 except on a few COPO Novas in '68.

It is possible the car is legit, but was converted to an auto at some point in time. I suspect the owner is not nearly as knowledgeable as many of the board members. Although he certainly does has good taste in cars, and planes for that matter.

The car is bogus. Should have 4 speed, doesn't have power disc brakes, No chrome interior trim. 1968 deck lid. I guess you could call that a light restoration. To many wrong things to be real!

No such thing as Air Spoiler Package in 1967.

Someone is in for a screwing.

Im with you on that, I think we have a shop putting cars together for fun and profit and the rarest high dollar ones too, Has anyone ever heard of the owner Carlo Magna? Most people who own these cars are pretty well known..

You notice on all the ads he has the information is very scant. No vins, vague info, poor history, etc., it almost seems like someone is selling them for him. Eg. maybe a bank?. You would think that if he's selling off his collection that he would know what he would have to put in an ad to appeal to the buying collectors??
