1971 Camaro SS 396, GM documented, 1 of 1533 made

[Gregs396]

I agree, there has been no "bashing" about your car. Only the facts have been brought out in this post. As I posted above, I have seen this car in person, and would by no means consider it to be any type of an original survivor car. As for the Docs, they are still said to be with a previous owner somewhere. Please keep in mind that is the same story that I got 2 owners prior to you purchasing the car. If you don't have the POP in hand, it is pretty much pointless to make claim about documentation for the car. From what I recall, the guy who is said to have the docs isn't willing to part with them for some odd reason. If the past owners of the car weren't able to get their hands on them, I have my doubts as to their existance. Out of respect for you and your sale, I won't post any of the previous sale prices of this car even though I have very close numbers. I know what I could have bought the car for when it was for sale in NJ, and I know what the previous owner wanted to get for the car as well. The patch panels and incorrect color may not be an issue to you, but they are a major expense that will be required to put the car back to it's Original state.

The GM of Canada documentation is shown in the auction photos. Much better than a POP, as they can be verified under license to GM for the cost of $40 and a phone call.Marc

Yes, 67BelAir427 is correct, GM Candada docs go with the car as the ad says, photos are shown. This is similar to a window sticker as it lists ALL options, unlike a pop, which only lists a few and is currently being reproduced today. Gregs396 somehow missed that in his "fact finding mission", although he was able to find a bunch of negatives about the car, but of course he is not "bashing"...gimme a break.

3964spd, As a member of this site, I feel I have the right to voice my opinion about what I've read and have seen.
You have the right to advertise your car at what ever value you think someone might pay for said car.
2nd Gen Camaro enthusiasts on this site are pointing out the good, the bad and the ugly about your car. This web site has a history of trying to protect naive and inept buyers from over zealous sellers, who might misrepresent or overstate the truth.
If you cant bear to be confronted with what KNOWLEDGEABLE people observe as incorrect with your vechicle, you might be better off removing it from this arena......

I thought eBay cars posted here had to disclose their reserve...sorry if I'm wrong or missed this figure?.

yes, everyone has a right to state their opinion, i agree. If i see someone represent a clone and call it real, i would blow the whistle too, but thats not what happened. I am not trying to hide anything, have many pictures of the car. All i said (and i can state opinion too) is that it seems like all is done here is bashing, not appreciating a rare documented car. This is not a Corvette forum, for petes sake. Why is every car compared to a trailer queen? Greg's posts insinuated that my car did not have documents, which it clearly does - from GM at that. It just seems odd that this fact would be missed but everything negative is found.

The seller asks "why is this car being compared to a trailer queen". It isn't my friend. But the car shown in the Ebay ad is not as described now is it.

In his first post he says the price is $28k obo. I was under the impression that all Ebay auctions listed here required prices.
