Drew, my hat's off to you.
There have been similar threads about Barret Jackson, and if Craig ever logged in here to defend himself or his auction house, the planet might well be adversly effected.
The point about "Caveat Emptor", or let the buyer beware, has been beaten to death. All you do is provide a service for buyers and sellers to do business, with a fee agreed to by both parties. Nobody is held at gunpoint to either bring their car to auction, or bid on that car.
This forum is open to opinions, and the often cover the full spectrum from wise and knowing to WTF. Thank you for your candor, and your willingness to get involved when you could just as easily hide from any controversy.

Although I agree the buyer has 100% of the responsibility and to me (and I have no cars) an auction seems like a terrible place to buy a car, the quote above is telling.

This is the same car I had advertised on this site !! We released the car to someone on this site, we found out it was possibly a re-bodied and sold it for a much lower price. Funny thing is, we saw it back out there with a WHOPPER price tag.
I won't rep any REBODY cars and neither did my Seller !!!
We knew this car would resurface with a clean story !!!!!
No better of a place to hide such cars but at an Auction Buyer Beware !!

I don't blame the Auction houses for these mishaps..

Is this the same Silver and Blue Automatic COPO that was at the Camaro Nats June 07?

real-muscle-1, Post pictures of the terrible job on the hidden VINs, we would like to determine if in fact it is a rebody

So far there is suspicion of a rebody, but no hard facts or pictures.
If a Z28 was used where is the 4spd cutout? Apparently this COPO has no trace of one which is interesting.

[/ QUOTE ] More reason why Im sure anyone who sells a car as a rebody would have the prescence of mind to have the buyer sign a statement acknowledging he is buying a rebodied car. Personally if i thought i "may" have a rebodied car, id probably want to upgrade that assesment to "certainly" have a rebody before i have a fire sale,no ??
