Needing reassurance on purchase

I think what Rick and Copo are telling you is the car is not a real Z28.

Holy crap, not even close is right. I have a close up pic of what they should look like but I don't know how to resize it and post it.

Here is a pic of an original bracket off of my 70 Z-28.




Also, I noticed that the car in question had no rear bumper guards and I did not see the cup style bracket that hold the gas pedal studs. The studs seemed to be attached directly to the floor. Take a look at an original bracket:

I am not a 2nd gen z28 expert, but I have seen (and fabricated) plenty of non-original hangers, traction bars, etc., and those pics clearly show the work of a back yard mechanic.

I believe that it is time for the 2 parties to resolve this issue. It is evident that things just do not add up and I for one am pretty convinced about this car.

I really do not think that anymore hashing, bashing and posting is going to help this matter. Let the 2 parties work it out.

Rick, Have you drawn a conclusion yet re: originality of Norwood Z-28 trim if sway bar mounts were fabricated...
