I was partnered with an active bidder on that Z28 on ebay. We had spoken to the seller and the owner of American Classix as the "appraiser" of the vehicle. Both parties had stellar things to say of the quality, but in fairness to the appraiser--he did say the only issue with the car, was the large gaps between the doors of the fenders and rear quarters, but other than that the car was real stand up. So I guess even when you contact an outside party to look at the car, your own eyes are truly the real judge.

Thanks for all the kind compliments guys. I truly appreciate it. Thanks for commenting Louis. Some of you may remember my work with Al McKenzie (Team Chevelle & Team Camaro Admin) 2 years ago busting Frank Cummings who set up a website called Partzsurplus and then last year busting scammer Christopher Justin who was selling non-existing cars. There is no way I could have done it without the help of the hobby community.
So many guys gave me information I needed to present a case to the FBI which was strong enough for them to look at the issue. Try getting the FBI involved in something that isn't terrorist or drug related and see what happens - *insert cricket sounds here*. My point is that collectively, we can put a stop to fraudulent activity but we ALL need to be willing to get involved.

Rick,
I looked at a LeMans Blue Rs/Z28 in Dunville about 5 years ago. It had been parked for years and was running a 327. The car was bought by someone else and is now a Cortez Silver with blue interior RS COPO. It was in great shape. The original RS COPO was a race car from day one. It's a shame that this rare Z28 was used to affix a set of COPO tags to. Thomas 1969 Camaro SS, L78, M22, 4.10 posi, Radio Delete 2000 Camaro SS Convertible |
