***WARNING*** 69 RS Z/28 on Ebay - Page 2

Jimmy,

Glad you have posted. I do not know who inspected the car or how much experience they have with 1969 Camaros but I can tell you that if this car is VIN number 124379N545561 then I have in fact personally inspected the car BEFORE it was restored. At that time, it had shoddy body work and did not have the original drivetrain in it. Nonetheless, the person who I was with bought this very car. He had been trying to sell it for quite a while in Toronto and finally sold it to a restorer.

In addition, this car was sold on Ebay a little more than a year ago by the person that restored the car. I will be more than happy to forward you the name and phone number of one of the past owners. How can you make the claim that the car has only 29,000 original miles? Do you have written statements from past owners? The individual who sold it last year on Ebay did not make that claim.

Just because a car is inspected doesn't mean that everything is correct. Anything that is restamped can mean numbers matching. The buyer can always call Jerry MacNeish to look at it and verify the car. Hylton just made a statement buyer beware, check it out. If I was buying the car and I knew someone on this site new something about it, I would want them to share, Wouldn't you? If everything checks out then great! Car looks very nice to me but I am viewing it from the computer.

It would have been more clear if Hylton's initial post had been more like .... " If this car is VIN number 124379N545561 then I have in fact personally inspected the car BEFORE it was restored. At that time, it had shoddy body work and did not have the original drivetrain in it. Nonetheless, the person who I was with bought this very car."

Charlie, Your friend bought the car? How does it look? It is close to my VIN 547891.

Funny how Jimmy did not respond to my last post even though he read it. On the contrary, he has not sent me anything. Sam will be posting the GM docs for this car which I received from one of the owners about 5 years ago.

Jimmy, I have just found out that you had in fact, talked to the person who owned the car when it had a big block. You know very well that the car does not have 29,000 original miles on it and the originality of the car is suspect.

So now I am asking you to end the auction RIGHT NOW or update your auction accordingly. Be honest about the car. If you do not by tonight, I will be emailing all high bidders with the name and phone number of the previous owner. He will be making a statement on this thread in a short while.

Nothing wrong with saying that it is a restored car. It is after all a real RS Z/28 with a very very rare color/option combo. The Camaro world is small and like I have said in the past, cars always have a history!
