No reason to be sorry Jason you learn something new every day! That is what a forum is and you are entitled to your opinion! I am happy to school you! You cant misplace SS badging when they are put in the factory holes after paint! They are not something that can be replicated as they are not oval (round) . Its all good!

Why the hell do people on this site insist on pointing out every little thing that is wrong with someones car if it doesnt meet their standards? Ive posted ads on here and experienced the same bull from the "trolls" as you called them! If you dont like a car or it doesnt meet your criteria then dont buy it. Why try and make someone feel like their car is a piece of garbage just because your noses are too high up in the air. Ive owned several 69 chevelles and looked at hundreds of chevelles and other cars over the years and this one seems pretty nice to me..not concours quality but still pretty nice. Move on to a car thats flawless and pull out your big wads of cash if thats what you want to buy..stop the bashing, it just makes you look like asses. Peace!

When a Car is perported to be something "special" then it should be.
It is a Very Nice resto. Looks clean.
But facts are facts.
It has Not got the "Original" Engine, it has a 70, and a Spare, Not Matching Numbers 375hp engine. Neither one is
the Motor that came from the factory in this car.
Strike One on the value as an L-78.
Emblems, Yep. Sloppy. Could be factory, they were building Profits and Transportation. Not "Showpieces"
We do That to them. We turn them into "perfect" showpieces.
Price seems Fair for a SS 396, but I would rather have a low horsepower 396 that matched then a high horsepower that came out of ????
If you are going to advertise something as "Something" it's just Proper to make sure it really is something.
Good Luck selling.
I think the Members here are just trying to keep everyone honest. They want to make sure, and they have a significant amount of knowledge here, that what is said, is "Correct".
After all, it is the members site and thier reputation that is at stake.
In buying Any Car, the Buyer should and needs to be as educated as possible if he/she wants to be a Happy Buyer.

I think that some people do relish the thought of cutting up other people's cars. We get it with our cars quite often. Other's are just trying to warn prospective buyers of problems with a given vehicle. With all the very clever scamming going on, buyers need all the help they can get. Not many buyers have any where the knowledge that is available on this site. The con artists would love to have these helpful guys muzzled. With the economy slowing down, the prices will drop to the point where people will just start driving and enjoying their cars. We do.

More than anything, it's the voice of the marketplace speaking. For both people with '69s for sale, it's probably frustrating because you're going to be upside-down soon in regards to what you both have in the cars. The market is way off, and you're stuck holding the bag. Hey, that's the risk; it happens with stocks, business opportunities, and loans to friends and family-- Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Drive 'em and enjoy them, rather than trying to substantiate each's worth, and you'll be much happier.

In regards to the SS emblems on the green one-- There's no way the car left the dealer's lot like that. And, if the car was restored, why on Earth would you not re-align the emblems? No offense, but small things like that are killers when it comes to selling, because in order to move those emblems, you risk having to paint the fender, which means a possible blending issue, etc...

Just my $.00000002. I fully expect a flaming, so commence!

Even as i wrote my last post about asswipes putting peoples cars down, the stupid comments and retarded statements continue. King Midas or whatever your name is..you have NO clue what your talking about as far as My 69 chevelle goes. I dont need to sell it, and if i dont get what i want i will continue to drive it to cruise nights, win trophies and have fun. Like i said before if you dont like it dont buy it. Im done here!
