Default Re: Not yr everyday convertible muscle car

I can't speak for the car in question here, but as far as the selling dealer goes, I'd be leary of putting any faith whatsoever in anything they have to say in their ad. They have a 67 Chevelle currently running on ebay as well. This one. I know the car Very Well. They bought it last month at Mecum for 55k and now have it listed on ebay for 80k. It's not nor will it ever be an 80k car, but that's their business, they can ask whatever they want. But...it is NOT a numbers matching car. The owner that consigned it to Mecum never represented it as numbers matching, in fact it was even announced on stage that it was not. Yet this dealer has stated in his ebay ad not once, not twice, but three times that it is documented numbers matching. Just sayin'...

Same dealer selling the JM certified authentic recreation ZL1 for 159K. The sales pitch is that an original ZL1 427 makes it a ZL1. Their business/sale strategy meetings must be interesting.

----We seem to have been thru this before with this description. I dont know the dealer in any way, but all that add states is that the ZL1 is very close to being an original. In other words as good a clone "in their opinion" as can be built. It doesnt say anywhere that I saw that because the car has a ZL1 engine its therefore an original ZL1. I agree that they are very posative on the descriptions I have seen, but I almost never see an E-bay add that isnt posative about whatever is being sold.
----The 1967 Chevelle convertable mentioned elsewhere on this sight seems to be a bigger problem.
----Weather your buying of E-bay or from your neighbor...do your due diligence! Obviously, in a perfect world we wouldnt need to. Everone would be honest and aboveboard, but it isnt a perfect world, is it? .....Bill S
