Here is a prime example of the "Nessie" photos I mentioned in the above post. 69 "Loch Ness" Malibu Who in their right mind would buy a car sight unseen going only by what they see (or don't see) in those pics?

This might be a nice driver; there's waaay too many incorrect details for this car to be considered a nice original. Plus there are signs it was slapped together for a quick profit-what's with the red hood hinges? Also take note of what isn't said. No mention of this being an original L78 car or that the engine is original.

That seller doesn't have very good feedback. I wouldn't risk the cost of going to see a car they were selling.

I saw this car for sale over the summer at a cruise night.
I went over the car pretty good and have notes on it. I went over it closely because I thought it could be a copo car. It is a X44 with a BB heater core and a 6/7 tach. It does not have any of its original drive train. It had a L78 motor,heads and a correct winters intake. It had a Muncie M22 4SP and a 411 posi BV code (got dirty looking for BE code). Build date was 09D. After loking at it close I came to the conclusion that it was a nice solid driver with some get up and go. If I was selling the car I would have taken 23k and run. If any one has any specific questions e-mail or PM me. If this was on the cars for sale baord I would have seen it sooner. |

At least the ad doesn't read MOTION MOTION MOTION BALDWIN MOTION BALDWIN MOTION THIS BALDWIN MOTION THAT with a little.. "replica" word thrown somewhere in the middle. Gotta respect the guy for not jumping on the bandwagon. Nice looking Camaro.. But I'm sure the guy that buys it thinks they'll turn right around and make a quick buck off of it by advertising it as a Motion somehow.

I like the Dave Matthews Band Fire Dancer sticker on the back of the 4Runner. (my son has gotten to my head). I am considering a 70 Z28 now. The man who is selling the car knows a great deal and is HONEST! But, he does not own a fax machine, digital camera, or a computer. He is doing all transactions from his work, the firestation. The rest of the world just does not live like the members of this board do. With multpile autos, some which are never driven, and proper equitment to document, sell, and buy other autos, it just is not that common. For a member to sell a Camaro for $100+K is great, some people may not see $100K in 5 years. The diversity within the US is amazing.

I talked to the gentleman in person who is
selling this car and agree, he is representing the car fair and honest. I believe the last owner added some MOTION/COPO/BB features to the car. I hope someone isn't buying it to misrepresent it to unsuspecting buyers. |
